why not just use your PC mouse? it'll work just fine. right click menus, scrolling, the lot. or didn't you know that?
None of the above. I have Windows auto updates on and Kaspersky Internet Security and Diskeeper running in the background. No viruses, no crashes and hardly any maintenance time.
Running Windows XP Professional - a very stable OS. I don't think I'm a rare exception at all, most people have auto updates on and have an antivirus running in the background. User stupidity is the reason why most viruses spread.
User stupidity? or user "non expertise"? be honest now. You mention two third party apps which you use to keep your computer secure, which the average guy in the street has never heard of. That's two more than the mac needs, and two more programs to run in the back ground and slow down system performance. Like I say, I've used PC for 20 years. I know how to maintain them. You obviously know how to maintain them, but you know, most people just want to switch the thing on an use it, without worrying about keeping the whole thing running smoothly.
Not recommended. Never use a public computer where your data security may be compromised. You never know what spyware is planted in those PCs by hackers.
This is funny. So using a PC will make you a better trader???? Cuz I do just fine with my mac. Of course it isnt the computer... It's my brain. I could do well with a Linux Machine. Back in '00 it wasnt my computer that made me a sucky trader.. Again it was my mind...
Just like in my night Job a Crappy Mix Engineer Blames his Mixing Desk.. Bet line I ever heard... Gimme a Mackie 8 Buss and I'll still mix a Platinum Record....
