    The Hedge Fund Class and the French Revolution

    even easier would be 20% sales tax on everything and eliminate income tax totally... Rich spend a ton of money on houses, cars, jets, vacations, meals, clothes, all kinds of crap... rich can't stop spending.

    shorting stocks, who loses?

    stock is borrowed, not purchased. If the stock goes down and you shorted, you make money and the longs lose... and vice versa

    no, over analyzing them is. pull up the chart on your monitor... stand up... back step six to eight paces... look at the chart... if the trend is sideways to mildly rising concentrate of buying the market leaders... if the trend is down go have fun (golf, swimming, boating, girls etc)

    Mac + Bootcamp + Win XP + QCharts and TWS anyone?

    I just checked out that mac you are looking at... I would probably go for that one also... mainly because of the style and chick attracting factors:) although I do like the DELL XPS1330 with the SSD but that is a much smaller screen, probably not good for gaming... but weights in at 3.9lbs

    Mac + Bootcamp + Win XP + QCharts and TWS anyone?

    I believe a full licensed copy of Vista cost in the neighbourhood of $500... don't quote me on that price though. The bottomline is... go with the machine you like... we are traders, who gives a flying $uck about $1000-2000 in savings anyway... that is just slippage. I just didn't see the...

    Mac + Bootcamp + Win XP + QCharts and TWS anyone?

    I think macs are great but if you are gonna run a licensed copy of windows on it for the majority of your use they are pointless... the beauty of macs lies in their OS. I bought one refurb in my life and I will never do so again. Just my 2c

    Mac + Bootcamp + Win XP + QCharts and TWS anyone?

    beauty of dell is... they have kick ass sales about every 2 months, next big one is back to school and... you can negotiate if you call a rep on the phone. 1gb of ram and 80 v 120GB hard drive is about $100... and you can get this included for free no doubt. in the past I've been...

    Mac + Bootcamp + Win XP + QCharts and TWS anyone?

    the premium you pay for a mac is basically for their kick ass OS... if you are going to buy a mac and run Vista or XP by a Dell with the same components for less money and save yourself spending another $500 for a licensed copy of Windows.

    don't waste your time. If the trend of the overall market is flat to even mildly higher search out and trade the market leadership stocks. money is made by sitting not thinking and over thinking... just my 2c

    Another super classic... "After spending many years in Wall Street and after making and losing millions of dollars I want to tell you this: It never was my thinking that made the big money for me. It was my sitting <b>Got that? My sitting tight!</b>"
