Harv the only reason I have 3 monitors is that a friend of mine ordered a case of that rocket sauce energy drink kind of stuff and Amazon sent her a 3 monitor stand instead. She called to tell them about it and they told her to no bother returning it, so she sent it to me. I then had to buy 3 matching HP 27" monitors, but it's only money, right?

Billy, what do you mean "USB pianos"? Don't they have MIDI ports? And don't you have a dedicated music computer that you don't need a camera on it? Backup drives can be plugged in and unplugged when you do a backup, unless those USB drives are general storage as well. I have a 1tb drive for music I want to store off of my main (C:) drive but I still have 700gb free. I don't download like I used to, and often I download, listen, then delete if I'm disappointed in the album I wanted to sample.

The reason I bought the external USB powered hub is that I don't want to use USB ports to charge phones and tablets. I bought a 12 port, and 9 are in use. It's getting hard to think of things that DON'T charge via USB anymore. I just bought one of those high lumen long throw flashlights. It has a lithium ion battery and charges by USB, so that 10th port on the charger will be taken by the flashlight. I don't know why but I just like the idea of charging by wall power instead of the computer power supply.

But back to topic, it's Ford vs Chevy vs Mopar. Whatever you like, you like. For me it's Intel.
