    Dual monitors

    there are very few pure digital monitors... most lcds are analog and some have both analog and digital outputs... my lcd supports both analog and digital and has two different outputs... nec lcds don't come with both cables (cheap bastards) so i had to find a store that sold dvi cables.

    Dual monitors

    for some reason dvi cables are pretty expensive - at least compared to analog ones. my nec didn't come with a dvi cable only the 15pin so i had to call around to find one. half the stores i called didn't even know what a dvi cable was and the other half didn't carry them. i didn't feel...

    looking to purchase new computer for trading

    the personal computer is a commodity... it really doesn't matter where u get it from and its what's inside that really counts. i personally find dell a bit pricey... u should be able to find better prices at the small independent stores.

    looking to purchase new computer for trading

    I'm not sure why manufacturers would make a dual output card with one analog and one dvi output cuz using an adapter on either head would create a fuzzy image. I had this problem with my ati 7500 and got fed up with it so I just replaced my old monitor with a digital lcd (that's my excuse)...

    How many points per day do you get during papertrade

    sorry... i mean that you will be paying the spread for instant fills with the market order, which may skew your papertrading results

    How many points per day do you get during papertrade
