Does anybody remember that one guy that was running like 9-12 monitors?? I'm trying to find him again, I can't remember what his username was!!!!

That sounds badass!

I have some new speakers, Cambridge Audio S70. They replace the Mordaunt-Short Avant 914i (now for sale) as I wanted something with a better match to my setup and slimmer cabinets:

Specs of the servers and what you use them for? :p *inner geek inside* lol

I love that case I would want it in black!!!

Got the case in Black, and what the poster says about the Black case is true, lol!

What's the media center case you're using?

I bought the computer when gateway was selling it at futureshop here in Canada before they pulled out.

The model is the SX2311. Its a small form factor case. One of the better i've used.

Has a quality build.

Think I had paid $230 for it at the time.

Noo, Not that guy. this other guy had them all stacked, I think he had 12 monitors or something 3 rows with 4 in each row, lol

Is it possible that you mean Stefan Didak? Not sure if he was a user here in neowin, but your description fits his office.

my god....... what does he do?

Not certain as to what that guy does, but when I worked in Ergonomics, I would have everything from Day Traders to Security to Your average person ordering monitor mounts to hold their massive amounts of monitors. I had a discussion with a day trader which told me that he would run several screens just to hold the financial data and charts/graphs etc which would always need to be displayed. The others were for his monitoring of the news, and software he would use to process the trades.

    • For the purpose that it was built for, it’s a great machine. It’s okay to own multiple machines, it’s okay for machines to be different. If every computer was the same, they’d be boring af.
    • OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT memory by Pradeep Viswanathan OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT's memory, making the system more capable, current, and scalable across long-term use. Memory allows ChatGPT to remember useful details about users, including their preferences, projects, and constraints. Instead of starting every conversation from scratch, ChatGPT can use this context to provide more relevant responses in future chats. OpenAI first launched saved memories in February 2024. That feature allowed users to explicitly ask ChatGPT to save information into its memory, such as travel plans or writing preferences. However, this system had limits because it depended heavily on users giving clear instructions to remember something. Additionally, saved memories could become stale over time. In April 2025, OpenAI expanded memory by allowing ChatGPT to reference past chat context outside the saved memories list. This was powered by a background process called “dreaming,” which automatically curates memories from chat history. This made ChatGPT better at learning from natural conversation without requiring users to manually save every detail. Today, OpenAI announced a more capable and compute-efficient memory architecture built on top of dreaming. This new system improves ChatGPT’s ability to carry forward useful context, follow user preferences, and remain accurate as time passes. According to OpenAI’s internal evaluations, the new system improves factual recall from 67.9% in 2025 to 82.8% in 2026. Preference adherence improves from 55.3% to 71.3%, while accuracy over time improves from 52.2% to 75.1%. The best part of this new system is a new memory summary page where users can review ChatGPT's memories. Users can even update details, correct information, or give instructions on what topics ChatGPT should bring up and when. This new, improved memory system is available to ChatGPT Plus and Pro users in the US starting today. It will roll out to more countries, as well as Free and Go users, in the coming weeks.
    • I work for a video production company in Australia. The camera operators shoot footage and then pass the SD card over to the editors. Much easier than handing over the entire camera. Plus, on a busy day you can hand off the SD card and then pop another in for the next shoot. Or, you might have used multiple SD cards because you need the extra space for a long shoot. I also use USB cables and wifi for transferring footage, but in many cases an SD card reader is the easiest method.
