Dell guys are great guys, but IT'S NOT working

Yes.
Use Case determines Specification.

So what are you doing over there with that rig?

The last machine I bought has a Xeon Silver 4208 in it... launched in Q2'19. And I got it for a song and a dance... cranks through my model in 1/2 the time the old one did.

In a nutshell... lots of bull put spreads.
 
How would you characterize the nature of a typical bull put spread that you do in terms of hold time, number entered into on a weekly basis, any simple basic observations you've made while you've been trading them.

Lol, is this a job interview? For obvious reasons I'm reluctant to go into nitty gritty details. But, suffice it to say I read this (along with a boatload of other stuff) and then spent a large block of time building [more] software.

My Use Case is served by an OOOld Scatman Special just fine regardless of bankroll, lol.

If a cat wants to get into the gadgets and gizmos, there are plenty of those too.
Not my concern. Did not sound like the OP's concern either.
He just wants to plug and play. Is that so wrooong?

When one has pride invested in their computer, one goes for bigger, better, faster, newer, more costly. When you see the computer as merely a "work tool", you can buy for "function" only. And as computers depreciate faster than cars, might as well buy a good, older one and save some $$$. (Buying a "good" one is the key... like comparing a used Lexus to a new Dodge Neon... which is why I recommend workstations for trading... even used workstations... as they are said to be manufactured with "server class components")
 
OMG, why?!?!? It's like talking to a brick wall. Fine, if you really want to save a few $$ you can get a raspberry pi 4b for less than $100 and use that instead :rolleyes:o_O

You should work for Puget Computers, man.
If it ain't broke, break and replace it, lol.

Lol, yeah... I think they call it creative destruction ;)

Out of curiosity @easymon1... what instruments are you mostly trading? Or aren't you trading at all? From your post history it seems you're just here for the technology talk.

P.S. I've worked/consulted for outfits a lot bigger than Puget... the research lab of a dow 30 component at one time even.
