HW Update

I splurged last months winnings at new Hardware to improve
my productivity. I calculated that if new hardware will
increase my productivity at just 10% it will take a year to
pay of this investment.

More likely I get 50% boost to my winnings. Here is my
current setup:

1. Sony P243 23" WS monitor with 1920x1200 resolution
I can easily run 6 tables at this screen. Its awesome!

2. Old 19" Fujitsu TFT as sidekick capable running 4 tables.

3. New PC with

- 2 GB RAM
- Sapphire Radeon X1600PRO 256MB DDR3
- 200 GB HD
- Intel® Pentium® 4 -processor 524 3.06 GHz

SW:

- Pokertracker & PA Hud
- HW Firewall
- 3rd party SW firewall
- 2 different virus scans
- legion of spy removal programs

Doesn't having multiple resident (as opposed to online) virus scan programs cause conflicts? I'm pretty certain of this.

Nope

Other is in RAM memory in addition I use other
virus scan to check drives offline. No conflicts...

I would not personally have 2 virus scanners installed at the same time on my machine. To each his own I guess.

Why does having more than one virus scan cause conflicts? I'm considering buying a new computer soon (since my 15 inch flat screen just isn't cutting it).. but i'd be curious to learn more about this stuff before I do so.
