While I have no doubt that there are really very few heavy traders, with a machine like this there may soon be a lot more. Putting the infrastructure together to successfully day trade may be daunting to some and this would solve that problem. OT - the few daytraders sure get blamed for a lot.

Leigh, Hi!! Was doing some "homework" recently and came upon a quote I had basically glassed over ...or let's just say I didn't catch the possible meanings implied.... What do you think of this statement? "BY 2003 IT (LINUX) AND MICROSOFT'S WINDOWS 2000 SHOULD HOLD ABOUT 80 PERCENT OF THE MARKET FOR SERVERS USED TO RUN BUSINESSES....IT'S CLEAR THAT LINUX IS QUICKLY GARNERING SUPPORT, ESPECIALLY AT THE EXPENSE OF PROPRIETARY VERSIONS OF THE UNIX OS." What also sticks in the back of my mind is the quote from Andy Grove who was quoted many times that "currently there are only 4-5% of the servers available that will be needed by 2004 and all of those will have to be replaced"... Detective Clueso??? You there???....Got any idea why they own all that land? :o) Best, Kemble
