The last hour... US market. It was a spectacular up move... followed by a spectacular reversal. Almost back to the point of origin.

The first computer that I built for my master thesis project was based on a S100 bus. The school bought a single-board (S100) computer - Intel 8086 CPU plus 8087 math coprocessor, another S100 board for I/Os (keyboard, floppy drive, etc. but no mouse), and another S100 board for video...

5 1/4 inch? Or 8 inch?

Imagine the average guy who bought into the hype and bought TSLA close to $30 on the IPO next day. Today it's at 19.70. An "investment" that lost close to 33% in just 3 days... faster than you can say cheese.

I agree with killthesunshine. Clean format and clean install probably is your best bet. But you need to be willing to let go everything that's on the disk drive (backup your data, etc..) There are different ways. 1) If you have a second computer (desktop or laptop will be fine). You...

My DSL provider is AT&T. I have their highest throughput plan that they called "Elite", rated at 6Mbps. $35 a month. They have other slower plans: 3Mbps, 1.5Mbps and 0.75Mbps. If you are going to share your bandwidth among multiple computers, I am not sure how any of the lower bandwidth...

????? Doesn't having an "edge", by definition, means positive expectation over time? You can have an edge but NOT profitable?

It sounds like you have the Vista installation DVD because you said you had tried installing it. If so... and that you really want to get ride of the "second" Vista OS... would you consider formatting the drive clean and re-do the installation of Vista? Was the "first copy" of Vista OS...

They sell DSL at different throughput. The higher the throughput the more you need to pay. What kind of throughput rate did you subscribe? Because no matter how you tweak your router your overall throughput is limited to what the service provider allocated to your subscription. The new...

I feel that, rather, it is "Guidance is what the ***big money*** is basing investing decisions". Big may not equate to smart.

I don't think this is necessarily true. You are assuming that there *is* a trend. The market can be stuck in range. (70% of the time per Dr. Alexander Elder). And in that environment, RTM would do well. The enemy to RTM is a break out/down. "Trend" or "Range" depends on the time-frame in...

I trade an entire basket simultaneously for diversification. I will hedge the basket with an ETF. I will hedge my ETF with an index futures. And I will protect my index futures with buying or selling a call option. Man... I am quadruply protected! :D (don't take it too...

You are certainly not alone. That's about the same time as I started. The newer generations always have some advantages over the old ones. At least from where I started I didn't have to plot stock charts on a paper manually.

I think for the most part, trading applications are 2D only and most of the basic graphics functions will suffice. I read up on the specs on Intel HP graphics chip... seems to be better at the HD video, video streaming, 3D rendering, audio codec kind of stuff. Besides using it for trading...

I think cell phones are different than PC's though. I think more than often cell phones are replaced due to the desire to get newer features (screen size, keypad, data, cam, etc..) than the physical life - functional obsolescence. (Both old models still worked when I decided to upgrade.) I...

The description seems a bit confusing. How can you end up with having 2 operating systems (and of the same Vista)? During the install of Windows, it should detect that there is already a version of Windows installed and prompt you if you want to save it. If you do want to save it, it will...

I also think it was a wrong quote. It happens not often but does happen. If you think they are correct, try to take the opportunity and trade on the free money. Buy on the lower ask and immediately sell on the higher bid.

Make a note: July 1st: Hong Kong SAR Establishment Day: returned sovereignty from the Brits to Mainland China. :)

Or like Netscape. Gets swallowed up by a bigger fish in the field while it is still young.

Good job! I was whipped pretty bad by the whipsaws. It was the third time that ES poking low 1036 near 12:30 pm (pretty late for a break) that had me convinced it would head lower.
