Do you know if Centrino technology is compatible with either the 802.11b or 54G standards? I figure the next laptop I purchase will probably have this in it and it would be nice to connect to the already existing wireless network at home. :cool:

Thanks everyone for the helpful responses, and yes, limitdown you did extend yourself quite a bit on this thread. What's your opinion on the 54G technology. Given the current conflicts, is it worth upgrading now, knowing full well it's overkill for the present time? I'm starting to think...

Who said that!! :cool:

I'm finally done wasting my money on three separate cable modem connections for three PC's. I know I'm throwing $100+ extra out the door every month that I could be saving if I network and now that they're capping speeds and setting data transfer limits, I figure the greedy bastards don't need...

That's what they *say* but it seems the technology doesn't live up to the hype, at least not yet. Do a search on Amazon.com and read the reviews buyers have put up so far.

Well, yes and no. I just downloaded today's daily data with no problem. However I tried to download some old historical intraday data as they claim to go 11 months back, but it just crashed Globalserver. I've gotten into the habit of just using Dynaloader instead so I'm not an expert. You...

I'm not a CPA or a tax professional, so please don't PM me with tax-related questions. That said, I'm posting some IRS publications that relate to traders specifically. They may help answer the questions regarding trader status, mark-to-market election, and income and expense reporting. These...

Yeah, I can only bang em for about a year myself then it's on to the next one. I'll keep an eye on em so I'll have something to bang on just in case there's nothing else around. What were we talking about again? :cool:

I told them my name was Big Gay Al and got 30% :cool:

LOL!

reviving this thread... noticed they added some more q&a pages, but that's it. The longer time passes the less I'm inclined to think it's a real possibility. http://genesisworldenergy.com/questions.htm

I plugged in a couple stocks and got this error message (which I thought was pretty funny...) WARNING The system returned the following error in response to your request: Table 'bright_trading.BKX-X_eod' doesn't exist getting symbol data :cool:

Yeah, I took that too. I'm a "skydiver". I'm not saying these things are accurate or that they should be taken seriously, but they are interesting. Let's hear some more, people... :cool:

LMAO !!! :cool:

I believe that is what the test tries to answer for you. Why are you Resisting? :D I bet you'd score highly in the Resistance area as well. Maybe it's common among traders? Give it a shot... http://www.emode.com/tests/inkblot/ :cool:
