You can either blame ms for using a weak battery or intel for not coming up with a more energy efficient cpu.

Thanks for the help. I found this, "To calculate buying power IB compares Current Equity with Loan Value to Previous Day Equity with Loan Value. Whichever figure is lesser is used. From the lesser of these two figures, the Initial Margin Requirement on the positions you currently hold in...

I have a basic question about initial margin requirement and hope someone can help me. I have a regular margin account with IB and have $20000 in the account , and suppose spy was trade at 100 yesterday and I bought 200 share of spy at this price. If tomorrow I want to buy another 50 shares of...

If one has one system but with two different parameters, does it count as one or two systems?

There are a lot of confusion about the Win 8 (interestingly, the head of the win8 at MS resigned). surface RT runs the window RT on the ARMS processors, which is similar to win 8 but not compatible. In the meantime, MS is developing a windows compatible OS for ARMS processors. So the future...

Macs are good consumer grade notebooks, however, as far as I know, Macs have not passed any of the military tests where thinkpads have passed seven. For one thing, Macs' key-board is not spill proof, unlike thinkpads, Dell's lattitude. Also, Macs has fell behind in terms of reliability...

I would go with a business grade notebook that is durable, portable and has a long battery life such as thinkpad X230. If you go that route be sure to get one with IPS screen that has a wide view angles.

if you want to hook up the notebook with one or two external monitors, then the laptop screen becomes less important. The build quality, performance and heat dissipation of the notebook are more important. My setup is a thinkpad T430 (a great notebook with an average display) hooked with a...

the problem with iphone is the "one size for all" approach. Just like the windows based computers the android has much more variety to offer.

Take a look at thinkpad X230, very light at 3.5 LB with 6 cell battery that lasts 8 hours, can be upgraded to 16 GB RAM and a secondary SDD drive by yourself. The IPS display is very bright. I just got one last month and am very pleased.

Actually I do not drink. Suppose one is in a crowded place like in a meeting, on a train or a bus and want to monitor and trade his positions if something happens. In this case a tablet or a convertible notebook with a stylus is much more useful than a regular notebook or a smart phone.

with the pending Win 8 release, touch API can become more useful. with the just-released thinkpad X230t you can use either a finger or a stylus.

As for new vs old, if a pc is very old then it is probably too old. I have an 13 yrs old thinkpad that still runs very well, all the hardware parts are working even though it has taken a lot of abuses from my kids. But the problem is that it has no wireless moderm, no earthnet jacket, no UBS...

If one wants a Dell or HP notebook, go for the very high end. My company of 7k employees is a basically a Dell/HP shop and the quality of both Dell/HP notebooks has dropped a lot recently, especially the HP probooks. Even the Dell latitude has a lot of problems. Many of my coworkers run matlab...

X230 is even quieter than X220 and comes out on June 5 http://www.notebookreview.com/default.asp?newsID=6477&review=lenovo+thinkpad+x230

the most mobile business grade notebook is the 12.5", 3.5LB, thinkpad X220 or X230 with an IPS display. I just ordered one for myself.
