    geisha girls

    About 15 years ago on a biz trip to Japan, our hosts took us to a high class Geisha house. The CEO and a few other top executives of the company we were visiting went along, and it was the only time we met them. The girls were very nice: hand fed us, poured our sake, talked to us a little...

    Buying A Computer From Dell Direct

    The video card was a nVidia GeForce card. The local computer shop used the same software (don't remember the name) as used by PC World to benchmark performance. While I was there he ran a benchmark on the computer as shipped by Dell and then took a computer case fan and held it near the...

    Buying A Computer From Dell Direct

    TripleJ, If you are referring to my post, the configuration would not work as the NIC was not compatible with the processor/MB combo Dell was using. The part was not defective as my local computer store tested it on one of their machines and it worked fine. My experience with Dell was very...

    Buying A Computer From Dell Direct

    I got a Dell about 18 months ago and I found their support to be rather poor. Story: The new Dell would not connect to my DSL. Dell blamed it on ISP, ISP blamed it on Dell, stating that the NIC card was not compatible with the motherboard/processor. We went back and forth for 8 hours...

    eMesa system

    I bought his "Rocket Science" book and found some things very useful. Also, there have been a number of corrections to his code and it is kinda hard to figure out where the correct code is. If you have a specific one you would like to see, drop me a msg and I'll see if I have it. DS

    What lapse of discipline pisses you off the most?

    I fell into the trap that it is better to have a high % of winning trades than to cut losses and go on to the next trade. When I was trading one index, I would get a run (not unexpected) of losers (I did follow the signals) and worry that my system was failing. Then I would stop trading and...

    TradeStation Music

    I get through quickly almost all the time usually in less than 5 minutes, except for last week when their trade server went down and just about everyone with a brokerage account called in wanting to know what was going on. Then the wait was looooooooong. It might be taking longer due to...

    Windows XP: Home or Pro?

    With Windows ME I had at least 2 crashes a day, usually more. With XP Home, crashes are rare and it's usually due to some dumb thing I did. I run Tradestation 7 as my trading platform. DS
