It seems like everyone lives by the adage "Rules were made to be broken"....... but if I were to try it there would be hell to pay.

Pee and password please.

Five more.

Thanks a bunch Mav. Learned something useful. Seems like a one in a billion post these days.

A gentlemen I met here in Texas noted that the absence of income tax caused property taxes to be relatively higher than other states. It's good for some, but tougher on the retired folks. I never took the time to verify his theory, but it seemed to make some sense.

A few years ago I switched from Qcharts to Sierra Charts with IB data feed. I wish all my decisions had similar results :) Much cheaper, much better, particularly with respect to lag and reliability. I am surprised they are still in business. Good luck.

This same question is something I remember struggling with years ago without resolution. Unfortunately, I have been Tivo-ing old episodes of "Lost" and thought it may provide a real back to basics scenario to help get a different perspective. Unlike the television program, the poor folks...

Seems to me that this is a bit like Enron only on a massive scale. Obviously the creators of these cdo's had the smarts to develop a "marketable" security, the dangers of which were missed by auditors, regulators and others in the industry. Perhaps the real question is why the market in...

I've used this for a long time and really like it: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16826104108 But I would like to give this a try: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16826104156

Lightning was causing me some problems which the ups seemed to help. My ups has a replaceable battery, but it is nearly the cost of a new ups.

What a great idea, thanks.

I just completed building one using this as a guide: http://www.anandtech.com/guides/showdoc.aspx?i=2910&p=6 Now that I look at it there were quite a few substitutions, but that's the mother board. It's my understanding that it is the best seller for those going Intel dual core. Good luck

I have a KVM switch also with only the keyboard and mouse connected. It can be operated via the keyboard also, which seems to work well for me.

I am not sure where to expand :) Backup to the secondary hard drive is fast and easy. The two machines are networked via a router, which also provides a hardware firewall. I view it as a must have.

I run two machines connected via a router. At least one has a second hard drive which works well for my back up requirements. Backups of really critical data can be kept offsite in case of fire or theft. Good luck.

Here's the way I usually go about it: Unplug the data cable to the old hard drive. Install Windows on the new hard drive and all the updates. Plug the data cable back into the old hard drive. Set the jumpers on the hard dirve so that the new is master and the old is slave...

Thanks easyrider, I would really like to see that also, in particular the settings for a bracket order.

I had cable for several years and like the speed. It would, however, stop for several seconds often several times per day. My current DSL probably does not test out as fast, but does not seem slower. It been on 24/7 with no problems
