If there are spare cycles (less then 100% cpu util) then the OS will give it to any process that needs it. If you are running at less than 100% cpu util then you are not cpu bound - you need to find the bottleneck and fix that. Here is a review of a solid state (RAM) drive, they are pricey but...

I'm pretty sure you can't do the Microsoft windows update without using IE as the browser.

:confused: Please quote the part where I defended them. This thread is classic, someone asks a specific Windows question and the linux groupies can't help but throw their two cents in. We get it - you love Linux, its better than Windows and anyone that doesnt agree with you is stupid...

Like I said, Methinks thou doth protest too much. Amazing that you know so much about me and my attachments. Psychic abilities must be one of the many features that Linux bestows upon its users.

Ever notice how the Linux folks are always trying so hard to convince everyone how great everything is over on their side of the fence? There is a desperate feel to it, like they are trying to validate their decision to themselves and the only way to do that is to make you believe that your...

I only use legitimate copies of Windows myself, but a friend of mine used it yesterday

For this situation I would recommend going long options or futures. For futures you need to define the maximum that the markets "may dip a little bit" because that determines how much you can leverage you can use (without losing so much that you are stopped out during the dip). I'm...

If you are reading books that talk about the spread and "making the spread" is a fundamental part of the strategies they are discussing then I would recommend you only read books published after the switch to decimalization. Ignore the bid/ask after the market has closed - they are...

Lost profits? LOL, we'd be lucky to get a pro-rated reimbursement for the time the service was down. Without even bothering to look I'm sure that the eSignal agreement we signed up under has more legalease ass-covering than you could ever dream of...

QuoteTracker has a pretty large list of datafeeds they support : http://www.medved.net/quotetracker/qsources.shtml Here is AmiBroker's : http://www.amibroker.com/guide/h_quotes.html

Maybe we can get a group discount if we all switch from eSignal to another provider en masse :D

Please let me know who are going with, I'm ready to jump ship too but havent researched what the alternatives are yet.

Excellent post FT71. I would add that if available FTTH (fiber to the home) should be a top pick; its like DSL on steroids - all the benefits of a DSL (no sharing bandwidth at the neighborhod level like cable) without the problems of distance-based speed limitations and noise issues that DSL...

Not sure I really understand your requirements but one (free) solution that is available is offline folders in Windows. You keep the files on your desktop and access them on the laptop via a network share but you also mark them for offline access. That means if the laptop isnt connected to the...

Yes that would work but I would recommend just getting a new AGP card that has dual outputs to replace the existing card, they really arent expensive at all, a little over $100 last time I got a dual output Radeon card I think. Example: http://www.directron.com/sap9250256r.html $53 and I...

You kill me. You whine like a little bitch b/c others are complaining about eSignal. If others protesting a rate increase bothers you so much then why are you reading this thread which is only about that one subject? Life's too short to waste your time with such crap. Spend the time...

This has never happened to me but I've heard of it happening a lot on FatWallet. Dell has a money back guarantee, 30 days I believe. Call Dell and tell them to you want to return it and tell them why. They lose a lot of money over a returned system (no longer new, must be sold as a refurb)...
