Got a Samsung SyncMaster S27A950D - LCD - 3D ready TFT - 27 delivered today, just plugged
it in and booted and I got to a desktop with the res 640/480. Highest resolution I could pick from
the list, using Panorama and nvidia 9600GT, is 1280/1024 which of course is not good enough,
but I'll soon get a new ATI graphics card and will report the outcome of that.
(I used to have a ViewSonic 2235 widescreen that worked well with 1680/1050 and the 9600GT.)

Desktop extending across two monitors is what I'd like to have, but for now I'll just buy a Radeon of some sort and see if I can make it work with widescreen resolutions.

So I can forget about nvidia bundled. This particular model also comes with integrated graphics,
Intel HD Graphics P3000 for Intel Xeon E3 Processor Family. It's not clear to me if this one is supported
by the wide screen activator, any experiences? Will probably be good enough for eCS, but occationally I
also use W7 and would like to have a better card.

The above site hasn't been updated since 2010/02/27 so I wonder what is the actual status today?
The cards listed are not available in any stores where I live, so does anyone have a suggestion for
something newer that works, wide screen and preferably up to 2 monitors?

Thanks Pete,

Yes, that's what I expected, but at least there is no obvious reason that they shoudn't work with Panorama?
I'm also planning on buying a Samsung 27", not sure what model cause there are quite a few to choose from,
so it would be nice to know if anyone has tried this combination of hardware.

Planning on buying a Lenovo ThinkStation E30 7824 - Tower - 1 x Xeon E3-1235 / 3.2 GHz - RAM 4 GB - HDD 1 x 1 TB
(Model no.SZD43MN), will install eCS to a SSD disk.

NVIDIA Quadro 600 - Graphics card - Quadro 600 - 1 GB DDR3 - PCI Express 2.0 x16 - Dual link DVI / VGA and DisplayPort

For me this means that everyone will have to be able to add, change and delete appointments... right?

Cheers,
Thomas


Exactly, that is the way it should work.
Sorry, but forgot to mention that there actually is no need for "end time" of the slots. Each appointment is always finished in less than half an hour. Sounds a bit strange, but there are several employees in the workshop handling the appointments without being assigned to a specific employee.
This workshop changes tires on cars/vans. Like right now is the high season for changing from summer to winter tires.

The question is - what is suited best for the purpose. And therefore, I need to make sure I get the picture right:
- the persons are scheduling appointments for 1 person in the company?
  (like 4 secretary people for 1 person who attends the appointments?)

This is a workshop that has appoinments available every 15 minutes, but not assigned to any specific person.
Only one calendar involved and the "secretaries" must all have access to it, so it must be a "multi-user" database.
No existing database will be involved. (RegNO is a field meant to hold a vehicles registration number.)

At the moment It's a workgroup all running OS/2 Peer, but an eCS server well be set up soon.

No automated backup, for the time being it is done "manually".

Thanks for suggestions.
Tried Kontakter, but it's not usable for the task. Calendarzone.com has lots of links to various calendars, but I have not found a single one that can be used without changes. Often you have to go through 4-5 steps to book an appointment and that is too time consuming, besides browser based scheduling is not an option in this case.

Is there someone out there who knows QT or Rexx well enough to create the scheduling application I need?
I don't expect anyone to do it for free, so if interested, please send me an e-mail.

Well, I'm halfway decent with DBExpert so making the UI and tables etc. is no problem, but creating the calendar would be hard, so if I had the calendar in place I think I would be able to write the code for the functionality. QT comes with a calendar ready for use and creating a UI with Qt Designer isn't too hard, but I have no experience writing the code that will be needed to make it work.

I've already searched hobbes without finding anything that can be used.
The calendar is not for one person, but for a business that offers appointments every 15 min. through the day.
(The appointment is not linked to any specific employee.)
Up to four persons answer phone calls and need to access and work with the calendar at the same time.

#1) You need an application that allows multiple people to agree on date and time of an appointment?

Not quite sure what you mean. Let's say a client calls and needs an appointment, then I need a tool to book/reserve
a time slot for that client. (Clients are impatient so the tool must quickly display availability and it must be easy to do
the booking.)

#2) When you say "internal use" - is that a network (1 server + n workstations) or "via Internet" ?

Server/workstations

#3) If these people all run OS/2... (or even when not): How about using Lightning/Sunbird (Mozilla's "calendar" thing) ?

All run OS/2.
Lightning installs as an add-on in Thunderbird and is not  what I'm looking for. Sunbird looks promising, and the interface
is nice, but I think it will take a lot of programming to make it work the way I need

On doodle.com one has to go through 4 steps and I need it on one page/one step, but I think it basically is what I'm looking for. (Have no experience with Outlook.)
Did some copy and paste and have attached a pdf that, hopefully, gives a clearer picture of what I need.
(Don't laugh,......didnt spend much time on polishing it.)

Hi,
Need a multi-user Appointment Scheduling software for internal use.
No need for advanced functions like payment etc. which the online versions offer.
Ideas, anyone?
