Is it hot and noisy? Does it justify the price? You can get a regular WD 120G, 7200rpm for $100.
I doubt we'd ever need 64-bit CPU, it only doubles memory space, not speed. I think 32-bit with 4G memory is good enough for tradeing softwares....
I am using both J-trader and TWS, both of which are good enough for me. I am a swing trader, maybe they are good enough for scalpers. The next...
