My Samsung 30" from the FTP point store died (known to have issues), but I still opted to get a dual Samsung brand setup to replace it.
I got 2 Samsung T260HD screens (you'll need a lot of desk space), and I love the setup. Both at 1900x1200 native resolution. The cool part is they double as HDTV's with built-in digital TV tuners. You can hook up bunny ear antennas or cable to them (I use a PS3 with mine).
Viewing angles aren't amazing, but looking straight on, quality is excellent and there are a ton of inputs/flexibility for the price.
Desktop performance should be fine as long as you aren't over-paying for anything... I have a 2.5 year old Velocity Micro system and it runs HEM+TableNinja+PlaceMint+PostgreSQL+FTP+Stars perfectly fine, no real lag. Any moderately new Dell or HP system should be fine. Just be sure to check out the video card specifications if you are going for a 30" or dual monitor setup.

Mum found out that I'm still playing poker a few weeks back. She's extremely anti gambling and put me in gambling counselling when I was 17 (currently 19) for playing underage. Mum has pretty much said that she will disown me if I continue being a "professional gambler." She doesn't want me to touch the 15K US in my stars account because she sees it as tainted/stolen money. She also suspects I've borrowed a whole lot of money to fund this which is entirely untrue given all I've ever deposited was $20.
Don't know what to do now. Have to see a councilor again which is a ****ing joke. The guy got me to answer a whole heap of questions about my gambling and the results were that I'm def not a "problem gambler" . Pretty insulting being asked a whole lot of questions along the lines of "how much have you stolen from friends or family to fund your addiction" or "how much money have you lost in the past year from gambling".
I don't need or want to play poker at the moment but in a year from now it's gonna be pretty tempting when I start to run out of money.
sighhhhhhhhhhhhh

She will feel good about herself for making you see the light, and everyone will be happy.
In the meantime, it'll be business as usual for you and you can continue to gamble it up, just make sure you hide it better from her. You need to perfect your web of lies, son. What kind of amateur degen are you? If you don't have lies to cover up you lying about your lies then you're not doing it right.
