    Next Intel CPU + Chipset when and worth waiting for?

    I think "crush" is overstating it. The big differences in the first chart come from the onboard graphics differences. If graphics performance is a concern then its not likely you would be using the onboard graphics in either case. In terms of actual cpu performance the gains are more...

    Kudos to MMs

    The numbers you posted were accurate but incomplete and out of context. The numbers I posted are accurate as well - they were exact quotes of yours taken verbatim. The three opening trades I listed were the positions you took with the FV model. Around mid-November you decided suddenly to...

    Fios or T1?

    Signals in copper do not travel at the speed of light, as far as I know its a wash with optical. Optical switching gear tends to be very fast because its designed to handle high bandwidth traffic, T1 gear is old and likely to be much slower because its based on older outdated technology...

    Fios or T1?

    A T1 internet connection is not going to have lower latency than a FIOS internet connection - they both are direct connections between you and the VZ CO. With FIOS the connection is optical, with T1 its copper. Most of the latency is going to be from the VZ CO to your broker which is...

    Acronis question

    Didn't quite follow how the flash drive is being used - you are able to backup your entire hard drive to the flash drive? Anyway it sounds like you have a solid plan.

    I think its funny that Optimistic FV is now 100 handles below the actual index. So much for intraday trading with it.

    Acronis question

    No idea why they aren't showing up on your main screen but I see two options, (1) use the browse for backup option, assuming your home screen looks the same as mine its under "More Features" or (2) Just locate the Acronis backup file (xxx.tib) in Windows file explorer and double-click it -...

    Paraphrasing an old joke: Nitro has predicted nine of the last two sell offs.

    Security at work

    Not sure why you are replying to a thread that is 2 months old but I hope you are aware that the RSA corporate servers were hacked and the code generating algorithm stolen earlier this year ... unless you have received a new RSA token since then you may not want to go around announcing your...

    S&P above 1350 by the end of this year, do you believe what she said?

    Of course it could - easily, all it would take is a stream of good news that the economy has turned. It was 1350 just months ago.

    Should we ignore the futures again today?

    S&P above 1350 by the end of this year, do you believe what she said?

    Yea, it clearly says "2012 year-end target = 1350", apparently OP has lost track of what year it is.

    Cloning hard drive

    No, you can't have two C drives, barring an unusual configuration if you reboot in this condition the original drive should still come up as C and the cloned drive should still be E. If the PC boots off the cloned drive instead then the clone will probably be C, the original drive will...

    Cloning hard drive

    Yes, unplugging the data and power cables would go a long way to protecting it. Drive letter assignments are the job of the operating system, each drive has a unique serial number so the OS should be able to tell the difference between the two drives even though they are cloned. If you...
