Re: Looking for some quick advice/feedback
In my opinion, it isn't a good idea to make a one week bet on a company because the company seems promising. Even the best companies can drop crazy amounts in a week because of external factors. For this time of short-term trading you should have some type of system in place that you have already been using in demo accounts and probably don't want to use anymore than 10% of your portfolio, I use around 3% for my "mad money".

Re: PC purchase advice
Have you looked at newegg or tigerdirect? They have components for the build your own route and pre-built towers. If I needed a new desktop pc, I would build my own using newegg. Maximum PC usually puts out a budget pc build every so often. Here is the latest I found http://www.maximumpc.com/article/featur ... s_500_2000. It gives some ideas of what cpu, gpu, memory can be had for each budget.
