    Can you dual box in a similar way in EvE as you can in WoW using Octopus to generate key presses between master/slave toons?
    -Boxing in EVE is different from WoW, it is not really the same. Some people have been able to setup programs to broadcast, but generally you really dont want to broadcast often, Krom and/or RobinG might be able to explain this better.

    Are there /follow/assist macros I can use?
    - There are no macros built into the game, there is no such thing as a follow command due to the nature of the space environment. There are some things to assist with moving toons, like Warp Fleet or Warp Squad, but that has limited use to move people within a system. There is also an autopilot, which i generally dont use becuase i live out in 0.0 (null) space.

    EvE seems to be all about the mouse clicking, is there a way to key bind abilities and attributes to limit the amount of clicking required?
    - EVE is all mouse/menu driven. There are some bind keys/short cut keys. Nothing major, but they are working on this to make it better for next expansion, becuase people click to much.
    - Edit: The general shortcuts you will use for combat is generally going to be F1 - F5 for your first 5 hot keys, you can assign them for alt+F1-F5, and Ctrl+F1-F5 i believe. These are going to be the rows of circular activation buttons when out in space. Then i also use Ctrl+Left Click on a something to target something without have to right-click and select lock target.

    I run with 2 screens, is it possible to drag the millions of menus off my main screen?
    - It has been requested for the ability to do 2 screens and drag all the menus off, but unfortunately we dont have that luxury, just yet. One of the biggest issues is the cluttered UI, but youll learn to, deal with, make use of space better, and not display things not needed.

    And finally, what are some of your set-ups out there?
    - ill post a pic of my UI Close up, but this is my computer layout.- Computer Layout: http://thewoe.com/images/personal/myspace.png
