  1. Is it possible to setup BBO so it makes use of two monitors? I would need the main table + ads frame (if it's the must) on the main screen. The secondary screen would have dockable scores table, who's logged on, chat... The purpose is to send the main screen up the large plasma display for the elderly, with no panes switching required.
  2. I second this on behalf of myself and two other persons: If dummy is on my left then trumps go next to my glass. Well, at least that could be an option, unticked by default.
  3. I was making fun of myself as a deconcentrated druncard... Technical aspects of my questions are still up, though...
  4. Thank you Diana :) Discussions over these wine spills make me recall old Monty Python: "What is the air-speed velocity of an unladen swallow" :) Link to that scene on YouTube. (FYI: that questions lingered on throughout the "Holy Grail" and curious minds were bothered by it) My question is still open, regarding minimum screen size that's functional and not causing many mis-touches, even in a relaxed atmosphere. Are touch screens ok in long sessions? Can they be vertical? Any experiences anyone?
  5. You are right, although my drift was this; I love bridge and anything less than decks of $80 KEMs wouldn't pay enough homage to the game. So, being thrifty as I am, I envisage using mice & keyboard @ $10. They are just new tech cheapo's, easily replaced, insignificant - and dryable - tools. The whole thing was to illustrate how technology gets cheaper and "real McCoys" get more precuios over time. Think Kindle... Also, the playing and scoring environment offered by BBO is priceless, and I would go as far as hiring students to set our hands to follow BBO deals, if I ultimately couldn't get this 4PC solution. Hey, these students could double as live musicians and lemonade servers too, come to think of it... :)
  6. I can see how this setup would be handy for me, but maybe for others too? Desirable BBO setup is this: - the table is shown on the main screen - the scoring / who's logged-on is dockable and can be moved to a side monitor. Perhaps some future version of BBO would allow for this? Or is it already doable using two sessions and a clever setup?
  7. Hi, I may just be able to afford 4 screens: home bridge will benefit from BBO infrastructure and regime + I will save lots on cards! Can I use 1 or 2 computers to wire these 4 monitors? I suppose multiple instances of a web browser are ok (else I may run IE + FireFox + Safari + Opera?). Would it be permitted by BBO? Any problems with same IP? In tournaments? Now, ideally I would like these to be tablets with privacy filters. What is a comfortable size for touch screens? After a few? That's likely to be expensive but still, what are your experiences, wishlists and cons for such solution? TIA
