generic is not recommended. i know personally people who got hurt by them. be warned. that being said, i don't know if the other props are any better. probably they aren't. you should be highly aware that looking for a prop firm is an exercise in finding 'the least of evil'. they are all...

well well.. he had his moment in the sun, and if came out of it all still with money in the bank, then i guess he'll make a big buck again sometime in the future. interesting story though.. i hope you enjoyed the yacht trip at least... :)

i've always said the politics forum will eventually be the demise of ET. not far is the day when some article in some financial website will review ET and add a few comments about what's going on in the politics forum. i'm also curious about why Baron compromises his business and its...

microsoft emphasizes that their next OS will come out way sooner than vista came after xp (meaning, much less than 5 years). i personally believe it's best just to skip vista. say 3 years down the road ms will come out with a new one. by that time you'll want to upgrade your hardware anyway...
