Actually, the Antec Earthwatts EA380 power supply is "ok". It comes with two +12v rails. But remember, you just can't look at how many watts a power supply unit puts out. You have to look a lot further, and into the amps that each one of the 3 rails ( the +12v, +3.3v, and +5v ) of the PSU are...

I'm in San Francisco and trade remotely with no problems the past week. Had problems week before last though with lots of disconnects and frozen level-2 boxes. I'm only reaching the servers back in Hoboken via a Comcast internet connection that shows about an 88ms latency via trace-route...

Too funny AND very sad, but true. That is why I chose a Dell that still had XP on it. But anything more than 4 Gigs of RAM won't be used by 32-bit software. You would need the 64-bit version of a Windows OS in order to fully realize the additional memory. :D

Then why do you continue to watch them?

Bernanke was BEHIND the CURVE back in September when he cut 50 bp, and he's still BEHIND the CURVE now. Without the Societe General distaster, he most likely would not have cut anything; simply waiting till the FED meeting which was only 8 days away . . . As a result, I wouldn't be...

Stagflation is certainly a possibility. Good point!

Here is a nice example of what I am talking about from the Dell Business Outlet: Vostro 400, Intel Core 2 Duo-3000 with 1333 front side bus, Windows XP Pro, 160 GB SATA HD, 4 GB of DDR2 SDRAM at 800 MHz., 256MB Nvidia GeForce 8600 GTS, 16X DVD, 48X CD. $769.00...

Yet another worthless thread on ET with a "headline" that is NOT accompanied by any link/source whatsoever. It's obvious that you work for Baron and he pays you by the post. Just pathetic. :(

You must be "new" to trading the market. A "crappy" consumer confidence number will be BULLISH for the market because it is just one more piece of evidence that the FED can point to for the purpose of easing! In the meantime, the SPX is now trading back above the 10 day MA and has a ways...

Gnome, you hit the nail on the head! Because of my concerns with Windows Vista, I decided to go with a Dell Vostro 400 instead of the Dell XPS-420, which ONLY comes with Vista. Check out the "refurbished" inventory on the Dell Business Outlet site. You can usually get an XP machine there...

Yes, get a ROUTER ( they are pretty cheap ) to act as a hardware firewall between your computer and your internet modem. The ROUTER will only cost you about $40.00 and it will "hide" your IP address from hackers and also encrypt your data packets. I'm not a big fan of Norton Anti-Virus...

I just purchased my 3rd Dell Computer ( last week ) from their refurbished "Outlet" website. Dell allows you to return any computer within 21-days . . . Those that get returned are put back into inventory on the "outlet" website as "refurbished". The neat thing is that you can easily save...

VMW had the 2nd highest Enterprise Value next to BIDU. Nothing in the market was more expensive . . . Not even GOOG. Given the efficiencies of server optimization, it was thought that VMW would be resistant to the business cycle, and any decline in capital spending. Apparently not so.

Could see some resistance at the .618 of the first move up which would target the 1384 SPX area. A "measured-move" of 101 points would obviously project much higher . . . roughly 1420.

True. I confirm this every time I watch a game down at my local sports bar. The delay is significant enough to be CHEERING for a TD on one side of the bar, while everyone looking at the HDTV telecast is still waiting for the play to develop! :D

I have COMCAST and am also in the Bay Area. You have to be mindful of the fact that there is a sizeable delay between being on a digital cable modem ( that Comcast has been switching everyone to ) vs simply splicing into the Comcast line somewhere in your home. My 2 TV's that are powered...

Yes. A 61.8% ratio of the first move up from the 1270 SPX level will argue for 1384. 21 day MA coming thru above that at 1389.00 :)

Just about EVERY single Bush appointee has been shown to be incompentent . . . Donald Rumsfeld - Defense Secretary Christine Todd-Whitman - EPA Michael Chertoff - Homeland Defense Curtis Hebert - FERC Ben Bernanke - Fed Gonzales - Atty General etc.

Sell Half . . . and HOPE that you are wrong! :cool:

He kind of looks like "Bud" in the movie Wall Street. :D
