Hi Tenchusatsu; Fascinating question re playstation... If they didn't need heat sinks on the PS/2, why did they need them on the PCs?

Should be fun to research. Somewhere I saw a link where someone took a PS/2 apart.

I have to say that I don't think anyone deserves to lose large amounts of money, though I might possibly make a single exception, (who nobody who reads this thread knows).

For so long I traded in a trading office and saw people destroy their accounts. It is a quite depressing thing to watch, at least it was for me. The 2% rule, guys and girls, lets all buckle up and trade safe!

My feeling on RMBS is that it is a great spread making stock, if you define spread as something like the range of prices visited in the most recent 10 minutes. (In other words, ignore the displayed spread, which could be showing 1/16, for instance, the stock is really a lot more volatile than that.) It is also a great stock to play games on ISLD with. I can guess why Zeev said he didn't like to use ISLD, daytraders have a nasty habit of sticking hidden orders on ISLD, offset by a 256th, in order to fake out the level-2 quote readers. Other daytraders test for hidden ISLD limit orders by putting in market orders to buy or short single shares, or take single shares off of 100 share orders in order to make them disappear. It is quite a mess.

Tench, PSX2 PCB confusion.
Found this on Yahoo. Supposedly a foto of the PSX2 PCB.
Certainly different than the foto I found. Actually, this one looks more authentic.
