Jim,
This may be tight in that price range, but if at all possible, get
yourself a 7200 RPM drive -- they are very available at this point
in laptops -- and reading stock data is very disk bound -- you will
not be happy with a 5400 RPM drive. Also, get a good defrag utility -
- perfectdisk, diskeeper or the winternals product -- for the same
reason. Constant downloading of data fragments the drive.
