anyone knows what happened to APPX on Nov 14, 2007? Share underwent 187:100 split on that day, but trading during the day was very strange. It opened at 23, then started to fall and after about half an hour settled around 13. It's not like one or two trades went at wrong (pre-split) prices...

Bottom line : if you are not sure that you should choose quad over duo, you probably shouldn't. Nitro: Thanks for the links, PLINQ looks very interesting. I think in the future we will see a move away from machine-architecture-specific programming (like C and its descendants c++,java and...

Most programs won't use multiple cores. Even those that do, usually don't benefit from it because in most cases the bottleneck is hard disk / memory access, not the CPU. Even if Task Manager shows 100% CPU, it probably spends most time waiting for memory fetches, not processing data. The kind of...

To put this into prospective, 1 $NT = 0.03 U.S. dollars. That is, only 0.5% earned more than $7500 /year. And that was in "raging nineties".

It's hard to compare. Many services (prefetch, superfetch, aero, audio, wireless, indexing, thumbnail generation, speech recognition, offline files, multimedia scheduler, smart card support etc) are switched off by default in Server.

All perceived difference is purely psychological :) Server 2008 is exactly same code as Vista, except UI and multimedia features stripped off.

Yes but that's 3x both overnight and interday. Other brokers 4x intraday and 2x overnight.

Wrote to them - laser is for high volume traders; their retail arm SogoInvest doesn't offer API.

I am with questrade. No PDT rule, trade as much as you want :) 3x margin with only $250 in account :) They don't accept americans however. I think opening account in some other's name is criminal offence now - expect FBI antiterrorist squad at your door soon ...

I should increase font size on my monitor, thought it was "8" at the end :)
