    Xeon vs Pentium, Workstation vs PC?

    There is no difference, its a marketing term. See Wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Workstation The label workstation is usually given to higher-end PC configurations but there is nothing specific that you can point to that makes a PC a workstation or not. At least with servers there...

    Gigabit Router

    Here is the link to the Cisco document I referred to explaining how to configure it for redundant WAN links; I don't know if it will work but if not you can just go to cisco.com can search for the article number (70559) ASA/PIX 7.x: Redundant or Backup ISP Links Configuration Example...

    Gigabit Router

    Actually most low-end firewalls dont have a 3rd interface (PIX 501 for example) however if you are familiar with how Cisco firewalls work the interfaces are all interchangable, they arent pre-configured as "LAN" or "WAN", you choose the security level for each. I understand that the default...

    Gigabit Router

    That's news to me. I have this unit although I admit I havent tried the Dual WAN config yet it has three physical interfaces and from Cisco doc 70559 (ASA/PIX 7.x: Redundant or Backup ISP Links Configuration Example) it sure looks like it supports redundant WAN links. Why do you think...

    Gigabit Router

    At 20Mbps it isnt so much the WAN interface speed that is the issue as much as the CPU in the router. There are 10/100 routers than can handle 20Mbps and then there are many that can't. Of course you will know if they can handle that throughput if you go to a speedtest site, if you are...

    "Scaling out" is inferior behavior

    I agree completely with what you wrote here. In fact I find that I can mentally handle a larger trade size if I utilize a non-optimal scaling out strategy, so if you factor in my imperfections then scaling out actually is optimal for me. However if I were a trading machine (without any...

    "Scaling out" is inferior behavior

    Call T1 the initial price target and T2 the revised price target based on the new information. Consider the 3 scenarios: 1.Sell all at T1 2.Sell all at T2 3.Sell half at T1 and half at T2 One of the first two will always result in greater profit then the third choice (scaling out)...

    "Scaling out" is inferior behavior

    I don't see how anyone can argue with the statement that scaling out is inferior, its a mathemtically certainty. I understand that it feels good to take some profit off the table but that doesnt make it right. At best its an emotional crutch. There is no good reason to scale out, if you...

    Something bad to happen in NY in March '07...

    Oh I get it, make some vague prediction that covers a whole month and then if anything "bad" happens during that month it proves the prediction came true. Gee, I bet something "bad" happens in NY in April 07 as well...you heard it here first. I'll let you know what it was after it happens...

    Ultra Sector ETF's (Long and Short 2X)

    Has anyone done a formal correlation between these leveraged ETF's and the index they are attempting to mimic? Just eyeballing charts they dont look like they are tracking very well (gains are often less then 2X and losses are often more then 2X) Not that I would expect a free lunch of 2X...

    How to know my AT system is running properly ?

    Google for "process monitor alert" There are tons of programs that you can run to alert if you another process on your system has failed (and even take action like restart it). You may be able to accomplish the same thing with the built-in Performance Monitor tool (found in the...
