It's not you it's the site. I'm assuming that IB has been doing some code work, and they've a major bug somewhere.

Yes, I do plan on multitasking. I already run dual monitors if I hook my Desktop monitor into my laptop, and I love having split screens. I can have a web browser running on one, and then Skype or a bunch of IM windows on the other. OR I can browse the net on one and watch a movie in the other, OR I can watch my class videos on one and fill out the homework on the other. It's just a lot easier for me to have two decent sized monitors instead of one gigantic one.
(Besides, I already plug into the 57" Big screen a lot already)

Don't want to make a thread for this:
I was thinking about a remote start system. Sounds useful in winter.
What are ya'lls experiences with these systems as a whole? Specific brands?
My truck has the factory keyless entry. Do they splice into the existing system and wiring harness, or will I have to remove the Dodge system?

They are great in the winter time, and I know lots of people who have them. One problem with them that I know of is that they can be illegal. Some areas where I live prohibit them for emissions reasons. They don't want everyone out idiling their cars for long periods of time just to warm up the interiors. Doesn't stop people from having them anyway. If your car is stolen though while you have it on the insurance might not cover you because you were doing something illegal to start with (happened to a friend of mine is why I know).

Emissions? What is this you speak of?!?!
I'm in Montana, no one gives a ****.
Also, you NEED to warm up your cars here before driving. I didn't let my truck warm up a couple of weeks ago when it was ~40 something and the tranny was all laggy for a bit.
I was looking on Summit at prices/features. There are some decent kits for <$150.

i know what you mean by a movie on one and the net on the other. a couple weeks ago i grabbed my old 17" and hooked it up to watch a movie while browsing since my tv is behind me when i'm at the computer.

I've done all I can think of on my end, atleast I know it's not just me. Besides, like I said, it only does this here.
