I guess I don't need much more than that, more would be really distracting I should think.

    True I agree that it could be distracting. But down here in Southern California traffic gets pretty crazy and simple music integration would be very nice to have. And on that note one of my friends actually got a ticket for cell phone use when he was using Siri to text someone. But then again when you're driving and using Siri you end up holding the phone right in front of your face to use it haha.

        So it appears over the last 4-6 months all this bitcoin crap has dramatically inflated the price of video cards.

        What was a $300 card in Oct/Nov is now a $450 card if it's even in stock. I may have to settle for buying all the other good parts (run 1 monitor), and then later on upgrade to a beast of video card and 3 monitors.

              no point now its over. it would have been awesome to have been a part of it when they were worthless, but now its so hard to mine you will be losing money regardless.

                My same equipment that about a year ago made a pitiful 1/100th of a coin every day now makes 0.0000 coins per day... I don't even know how few I make now, but it's on a server that is running all day anyway, so it's not exactly a loss, though maybe now the power is costing me more than I'm making. I'll have to look into that.

                        Video cards have been useless for bitcoin mining for about a year now, so I highly doubt that has any influence on their current price.
                        Today's ASIC miners are 1000x to 10000x faster than GPUs.

                              I'm not a computer whiz, any idea why the price of video cards seems high the last few months then?

                                Not worth the hassle with GPU mining. You would have to invest so much to even see any gains.
