("Windows and other incidental technologies") Question. When did Windows
become incidental to the running of MS?
Anyhow, video cards and such are totally relevant. If you run a 16MB card
instead of a 32 MB card, you may be less that pleased with the results. It
may cost you money through a delayed or unclear signal response. There are
many who have missed a great trade by entering a buy or sell limit order too
late. Isn't $$$, the bottom line, what it is all about? The support system
(Windows) is a critical ingredient and has considerable merit.
Your comments are welcome.
