well, it does work. I'm just a big techie... from what I complied at newegg.com... Nope, I get it. Between visits to Fry's and purchases on Newegg, I can't begin to count all the upgrades and completely new systems I've built over the years. Not to go too off topic, but if you do any serious gaming don't skimp on buying a dedicated sound card. Audio processing was frequently a bigger performance bottle neck than any other single component, including graphics. I'm confident you'll find a buyer for your roll of Peace dollars. There's likely a lot of interest here on the CCForum. Good luck! |

Per SD's original question/dilemma, PMs are gonna be down for the count for the short term, summer is historically not a good time to sell off all PM holdings. With Europe's economies in trouble one after the other, they have to stabilize or bailed out in order to restore confidence in the metals instead of the greenback.

I would wait till fall. As far as I can tell silver usually drops in the spring and starts to rife again in the fall. its the natural ebb and flow of the PM market. also there are prety good deals on computers in the fal if you buy a floor model. I got one for 500 with a hundred dollar rebate,

 Office Space is full of good stuff...but that scene with the copier is classic! Hawk has to see it if he hasn't already.  |

When I was in college, we took out a printer with a potato gun. The potato didn't really do any damage, just made curly fries all inside the printer, so we used a can of peas next. That was much more effective. Regrettably, we did not film the event :(

This thread has has frayed badly from its relevant origins. It devolved from, "When Will Silver Beam Back Up?" to "What's the Best, or at least the Most Interesting/Entertaining, Way to Destroy Office Equipment?" I have traced the malady to its source. Hawk was the culprit this time.  |

I don't remember if a sabot was used or not, but it was probably a much better way to have the equipment explode in our face then using a potato. When we are young, we do some questionable stuff because it seems cool (and it was to be honest), without really thinking things through.
And to try and get back on track, I hope silver continues to decline. I want to see it back at $10 so I can reload after selling most of mine off in the $40s a while back.

I don't see silver going much lower but I could see the yo-yo dance between $27.50 and $28.50 for a few more months. July seems to be the month everyone is pointing toward for "some event" that will move all markets. The Greek vote,QE,Spanish banks,etc. will probably be factors. If the yield on US 10-year Treasuries gets any lower people will have to start looking elsewhere.
Gold,on the other hand,seems headed to maybe $1450/oz from what I am reading. Many of the people predicting $1450 gold are also saying $2000 gold by years end. As always,we'll have to wait and watch.

Of course there is. June 1, beginning of the end of the quarter. Manipulators are start-stop buying contracts left and right, so they can sell at the end of Q2 and report big earnings, then reverse it all beginning of July.

The May jobs report was awfully ugly, as well, although I'm not sure how much of an impact the news had. Sometimes it seems like the rise or fall of silver is completely counter-intuitive to what one would reasonably expect that it's hardly worth attempting to comprehend at all, let alone predict. I think I'd have better luck deciphering Linear A.  |
