    Exactly. My school computer does everything I need it to. It's powerful enough to run dual monitors at full HD and rocks at video editing, so that's good enough for me. This is the first SSD computer I've had, and I love it. 12 seconds from totally shut down to fully operational wows me every time I fire it up

    I could care less about dual monitors but I can run dual 4k monitors if needed, but my computer is 4KUltraHD make it already a but overkill, but yea. Having an SSD is pretty great though. Literally 10 secs to start and shutdown. Video editing though.... lol Editing is fine and Sony Vegas Pro 12 work flawlessly, but then render lol if the video 1080p 60FPS and over 5 minutes hope you have something to do for the next hour or two.

    I have a 27" and a 24" display on my desk running 1080p and 720p. I really want to get another 1080p though. The difference is really noticeable when reading text. 4K is too expensive, so I'd rather have more or bigger 1080p screens. I don't know the resolution on my laptop...It's "Retina"

    Edit: yes I do, it is 2560 x 1600 on my laptop screen.

    With that, I'm out. Got a busy/early day tomorrow.

    Currently, I've tapped into the power and ground between the tail lights. It's a temporary wiring solution, but it works for me in the meanwhile. Pretty simple if you ask me.

    Sig is something like 190pixels tall by some 400pixels wide. I just cropped it, added effects and then resized the image to be 190pixels tall. Seems to work just fine for forums.

    I know that this is a Tacoma based forum, but went snow wheeling for the first time today... Also there were 4 SASed FJCs! All of them being '07s and we had one of each color from launch year of the FJC. Definitely not something that you see everyday.

    I'll post more tomorrow if anyone is interested.

    Camera batter died shortly after this, but nothing much was missed. We turned around here since there was a gate blocking off the rest of the trail and Chance in the Black CaliFab FJC helped another rig get to the gate. 2 miles in about 5 hours :rofl: What a blast though!

    Definitely was a ton of fun! Snow makes everything not have any traction, but definitely a very interesting wheeling experience. Though :rofl: it pretty much was Strugglefest 2k16 :rofl:

    OMG Lockers though :amen:
