    I received a postal letter on Tuesday (6/5) that my Penson futures account (through MBT) was being moved to Knight and if I wanted to do something else with my account to contact them before May 31st (the previous Thursday) .... lame considering they had my email address and could have...

    MBTrading Problems

    Yea, I don't bother contacting MB support about problems like strange messages or being unable to connect because its either frustrating or pointless - unless they have cost me money (like charging me for quote data packages that I didn't sign up for) I don't bother. MB is getting less...

    computer slow to boot

    When you switch from PATA to SATA do you disable the PATA ports in the bios? Wondering if the BIOS is going through an auto-detect routine trying to figure out what is connected to the PATA ports and it has to timeout before moving on to the SATA ports, I've seen Dell computers behave...

    Prepare for the "worst case"

    You can make the same argument for 3.0, 2.0 and 1.5 - like I said your decision to choose 2.5 is arbitrary and if you look at the graph where it went below 2.5 in the past its clear that the trajectory is more important than the actual value.

    Prepare for the "worst case"

    I asked how you came up with the arbitrary rule of passing below the 2.5% level as a precursor to a recession not the definition of the recession. This is what you said that I replied to: "When the line went under 2.5 in the past then it usually meant a recession wasnt too far away. "...

    Prepare for the "worst case"

    Since this recovery was much weaker than previous ones and barely got above 2.5% having it go beneath that arbitrary level doesn't seem very telling. Also isn't GDP data quarterly not monthly as you stated?

    You are so stupid - you don't even know when the futures markets are open? And you claim to be a professional? As trefoil said, market closed 9:15 ET, 45 minutes after the release - you would know that if you were actually trading.

    Which Processor offers the best speed and durability to price ratio?

    I've never had a processor fail on me. Unless you are planning on testing the thermal limits of a processor by overclocking it big time I don't really understand this durability aspect you are referring to.

    Plugging new CPU and MoBo, need to re-install Win7?

    Based on anecdotal evidence I think you have pretty good odds that it will work without an OS re-install. After your bring it up on the new motherboard, you will need to install any motherboard specific drivers that Win7 doesn't have. Can't hurt to try - worst case you have to do a clean...
