Hey wake up! Time to call a higher top!

Technologies advancements... this is making things too easy... compared to 20 years ago... building your own PC. Just helped a friend putting together a new computer from parts. He inherited some old board/chassis/processor/memory that he wanted to re-use and bought some new disk drive /...

The ET site has been bogged down by something. Virus on the server? Started observing it last night Dec 2, 2010. If this continues, I think viewership will drop quickly.

I don't think it will be more difficult. More "difficult" in what sense? If the motherboard supports it, shouldn't be more difficult IMO. RE: Power source USB and SATA... the interface itself, should not be a consideration in your power source. Power is most likely driven by these...

Your Trade #3 long was a good trade. I placed an order to short the recoil of S&P around 11:30 am, but later I cancelled. Had I taken that trade it would have stopped me out by 2 S&P points. :) Good job Matcha! Enough to pay for Andy Lau's concert? Or was it a virtual concert? :)

IMO: Nothing. Buy/use only what you need. If you only care to drive 10 mph, there seems no reason to buy a Ferrari for it.

Well I was talking about a typical desktop PC with SATA connection to the harddrive (typically only one) and DVD-RW (typically only one). Unplugging such internal SATA cable to the system disk while the system is up and running... I don't think it's cool. Of course if you have the hot...

The internal SATA cable: unplugging it while the system is up and running is asking for trouble. Especially the SATA cable to the system disk drive. Don't know about the external SATA. DVI - it is the video cable. Shouldn't be a problem. It's best to have the monitor powered off when you...

Looks like someone is going to have some great dan tart, or wonton noodles... :) and someone is flying a lot of miles... have a great one. I hope the markets don't collapse while you are not watching... :)

This mount requires bolting the rig to your desk. Hope you don't mind drilling holes on your mahogany desk. :)

Indeed T1 speed is 1.544 mega bits per second, upstream and downstream. Cable modems can support "up to" 30Mbps. But they rarely achieve that. My cable modem at home works at about 15Mbps. One time I tested it amazed me with almost 24 Mbps. I am not sure if T1 is offered to residential...

Wordpad is more elegant than Notepad. But I like Textpad (a freeware text editor) even better. Textpad can handle large text files - typical of log files from some software - than Notepad or Wordpad.

Notepad can be accessed via the same way as Wordpad.

Shouldn't have to. First click on the Start button. Then click on "All Programs" button. Then click on "Accessories" folder. Then click on "Wordpad" icon.

Anything that takes CPU cycles to support is taking the same CPU cycles from your trading programs. It may or may not affect the overall performance that much. The question is do you really need it. If nothing else, the default aero crap is very distracting. When trying to Alt-Tab to...

City of Los Angeles, although big, doesn't extend very far. The LA and Orange counties have something like 50 cities and LA City is the biggest. Anything south of Anaheim/Santa Ana definitely is within Orange County. Tustin is in Orange County. It's own city.

From my experience, when the electricity is out at my house because of a grid outage, my cable signals are also dead. I presume it is because the cable headend equipment does not have UPS backup when their commercial power is out. The phone line, however, still carries dial-tone. So if you...

Why? Do regular disk drives generate a lot of heat?

Oh... I need to take back all the good things I said about you!!! Just kidding. LOL :D Typing mistakes happen. Don't be too hard on yourself. You will make it. But it is a long journey.

This is from the OP: Can you tell if his 8% per month system is real or fake? If you can't tell if it is real or fake, you are just an idiot that he described.
