    New Quad Video Cards At Nvidia... Run 30"ers

    I have the 450. It states on the dell web site that it is compatible with the Dell Dimension 9200. Whether my motherboard has an on board video chip I have no idea. I don't even know what that is actually.

    New Quad Video Cards At Nvidia... Run 30"ers

    Yeah thanks but I did try the driver from nvidias web site. Still didn't work. I may be using the wrong lingo but when I say "ports" I mean the plug in ON the video card for the monitors. The right two work, the left two don't. Serves me right for trying to save a few bucks. The one I bought was...

    New Quad Video Cards At Nvidia... Run 30"ers

    I have a Dell dimension 9200. For whatever reason only two of the monitor ports on the card actually work. I can put any of the monitors in those two ports and they will work, but the left two ports do nothing. Is it possible that this card isn't compatible with the computer for some reason...

    New Quad Video Cards At Nvidia... Run 30"ers

    I just bought an Nvidia NVS 450 and just installed it. The problem is, only two screens work. Everything is hooked up, everything is connected, I unsinstalled and installed everything 3 times. BTW, if you were wondering, the card comes with adapters for dvi cables. It was amazingly easy to...

    Which Caribbean Island to move to

    I never suggested giving up a passport to live in the USVI. I was referring to US citizens who want to live in some tax haven to avoid taxes. According to this article : http://www.nytimes.com/2006/03/05/national/05taxes.html , the income tax rates for USVI residents can be as low as 3.5%...

    Which Caribbean Island to move to

    I don't know if anyone mentioned it earlier in the thread, but the USVI enjoy a much lower tax rate than the mainland for anyone who runs a business there, such as trading. I think the income tax rate is something like 5% possibly. That said, it is a special break that was approved by the...

    SHORT oil @$125.55 and up

    Which method? You mean one day of day trading? I'm ok if the trend is clear to me and I'm trading it the right way. I seem to do better (with less stress) though, if I trade the intermediate term swings. We'll see.

    The economic impact of the current Exodus from the United States.

    Interesting. I'm good friends with a Brazilian family who live near me. They won't even take their children to Brazil when they visit because they say that crime is so rampant and they fear for their children's safety. Maybe I should also tell my uncle , a Catholic priest, who has worked in...

    Yes, but I didn't follow it.

    SHORT oil @$125.55 and up

    I am bullish on oil as well longer term, but that doesn't mean it won't go down 20-30 points before it goes up again. Besides, after I got my ass handed to me on ES yesterday, I need something else to trade. :)

    SHORT oil @$125.55 and up

    Thanks. I've been trading (swing and intermediate term) the oil rally for a few years through stocks, and I don't know how many times that we've had a huge run up and then I've failed to sell at toppy prices, only to get good but not great prices later. This feels pretty toppy to me right now...

    SHORT oil @$125.55 and up

    I havn't traded oil in a while, I usually trade ES on a daily basis, but it looked as though CL would be more interesting today. I've followed oil through my stock holdings, mainly HES and APA, both of which I sold yesterday after very nice returns. I short some CL this a.m. at 133.33, moved...
