Getting a turnkey system that can drive 6 monitors is possible, but it's going to cost you, especially if you're interested in one that comes with an i7-2600K. If you can build a system from parts then this configuration I put together on NewEgg will do the trick for $1,763 (less shipping and...

Disagree. On the outside chance that the House actually takes a vote, it will not pass. But, I don't think it will even get that far.

What makes you think they'll let you or any other foreign national inside their border if the SHTF?

Realistically, that kind of money will only get you a decent workstation with two GTX590's. Here's a public wish list on NewEgg that, for $3K (excluding taxes and shipping) will give you (NewEgg currently limits the GTX590 to 1 per customer, so you need to order a second one at an additional...

You'll live, grow old and die. Did you think you're any different than anyone else?

Agree. Keep this site handy if you're ever in need of an exact replacement. http://pckeyboards.stores.yahoo.net/keyboards.html The Spacesaver M and 104/105 keyboards feel exactly the same.

If you only missed two ?'s you'll be fine, don't sweat it.

In a world of fiat currencies it depends on who collapses first. It's like that story of two hunters being chased by a bear. To avoid being eaten you only have to outrun the other guy, not the bear.

No argument there. But, that has nothing to do with the fact that gold does have it's own liabilities. Pretty much anything has a liability attached to it -- after all, there's no such thing as a free lunch.

Going by the 1980 CPI calculation it's already running at over 10%. http://www.shadowstats.com/alternate_data/inflation-charts

IMHO, before going whole-hog on a PSC, you should get a NVidia GTX560 card like this first: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814261109 What's nice is that it has double the memory, 2GB, compared to other GTX560's and memory is what's most important when it comes to...

The inability to generate revenue is certainly a liability for gold ETFs.

Actually, (also in the link you provided) NVidia cards that support CUDA 1.3 or above have double-precision.

I'm well aware of the "previously ordered as new" category. I figured you'd cry foul if I used them since they're not discounted nearly as much as the refurbished (reconditioned) and the as-is boxes are. IMHO, the as-is ones are more challenging due to the discounting. But, if you want to use...

Of course you can get something for less than you can DIY from the outlet because those are either "reconditioned" (used) or no longer in production. The components that went into them can no longer be purchased new. Okay, so you think the Precision line is cheaper? Configure any of their...

That hasn't been true for over 15 years... http://www.geoffreyjames.com/microsoft_goes_hardware.htm http://www.hunterstrat.com/news/microsoft-tries-enterprise-hardware-with-datallegro-purchase/...

Sorry, but any current system from econo-box to uber-workstation can be built for less. Take a look at the Vostro 230 that's priced at $299 ($300 off the regular price). That machine in it's basic configuration comes with a Celeron 450 2.2GHz, 1GB DDR3-1333, 250GB 7200rpm, DVD-ROM...

Buy a business class laptop. Most Lenovo Thinkpads with NVidia graphics and when docked to a MiniDock will support two DVI plus one DisplayPort for a total of four screens (when you include the laptop's display).

Scat, the argument was that Dell can build it for less than you can and that's simply not the case. You might get more for your money with a Dell compared to HP, Lenovo or the other major vendors. But, you can always build a higher performing system for less than what Dell offers new. The...

Not true. I just spec'd an Aurora ALX on the dell web site, i7 930, 6GB, 1TB in a mini-tower. Total cost before shipping and taxes, $1999. You can build this from newegg for less. Comes with a faster CPU, more disc/memory, better video and a full tower. Add a 2yr warantee for $44 and a...
