First cup of tea out of the way. Dividing computer screens between email, 20 FF tabs, and Band Of Brothers pt 4 'Replacements'

Now you've got 3 screens? And there was I thinking myself all mod for upgrading to a dual screen setup. Phhfff, impossible to keep up with the Joneses these days :(
BTW, must dig out my 'Band of Brothers' box-set again. Haven't seen it in a few years now and it definitely was one of the best.
Well, I'm using two machines at home... the laptop is catering for the increasing number of tabs open, while the PC looks after the rest (and the better audio).
I've wondered about the single larger screen but I'm fond of the idea of partitioning the desktop via additional screens, knowing that X will appear on one screen and when maximising, moved etc won't interfere with the second screen.
James, I go through the BOB cycle every few months, just can't ever get tired of watching it.
The missus gets moans & groans every time I put it on!
Can't get enough of it though. Defenitly one of the best war movies/series ever done.
The fact that I've visited most of the locations where it is set does help also..
It does make it seem that bit more real alright. I've been around Normandy and the surrounds a few times, haven't been there in around six years, aiming to rectify that next year.
After a 2 hour break I'm on to pt 6.... reckon I'll hit pt 8 and then slow it off. Enjoying my day off.

We used two screens during Science Week Ireland. I wonder if a 32" single screen would deliver more effectively.

Onto pt 5 'Crossroads'. Break at 1 for lunch and a prep for radio chat this afternoon. Then it's onto Bastogne (pt.6) for 3pm.

Boxset or download?

Boxset, straight out of the fancy tin.

I wandered around the graveyards of Normandy a few years ago and was struck by the number of Irish surnames
