theres actually 4 usb :wink: and i got a quick question about monitors. Well ive made up my mind imma get the 30incher but yah im a bit short- actually $1600- so should i get a small 15in flat panel monitor because i need a new monitor real bad, and i wont have $1600 for a while. So i could spend like $100-$150 on a small dell 15in monitor to tide me over until i get the big beast.
