VMWare has the best functionality, small footprint, fast. I believe they released a free version too.

I believe a much better decision is if you just go with Windows 7. You will get a lot of advantages. This time MS made this right. I collected some info here: http://blog.thstart.com

I suspected this and spend some time digging in Congress testimonies and SEC rules comment. It is very time consuming but very informative what happens in the background. I will post them to: http://blog.tradersheadstart.com Here is the RSS feed...

[B] Of course I am not happy with my broker feed. I had my accident when trading with options and learned my lesson. A time ago I was calculating my chances and bought an options. It turned out I was right and suddenly volume surged up a lot to the point I don't get any response from the...

It is difficult to understand why people keep trying to get in this millisecond game when a common sense is telling this not enough to get the full picture and have a real advantage. In this kind of game the rules are predetermined, you cannot change them or get any real advantage. This is...
