I had to cover my OEX, OJ, for about a 50% gain. I have two of my three computers knocked out. The kid was trying to hook one up to a cable modem last night so if PC Quote went down on one ISP (like yesterday) I would have it on the Cable Modem. But he trashed the machine, and the package that says "Do Not Throw Away" is here but the boot disk is not, and I cannot get that machine to work at all; I fear my charts and so forth are cooked for good. The second machine which is running PC Quote has a failure on the PC Quote end. The Macintosh, true to it's style, is the only one that is plodding through the devastation. But although the Mac is a superior machine Mac trading software is not....rather, it is far inferior. So I'm just letting my positional trades stay long, the OEX is now flat, and day trades are out of the question. A gin game starts around one o'clock anyway. Considering how much I have invested in software and so forth, I figure the damage to my files is considerable from a financial point of view. I have much of it backed up on a Jaz drive but I'm not exactly counting my lucky stars at this point.
