<1> nah that server will be fine
<1> we have run exchange on 1.13GHZ, 512MB ram... 2 dozen maildrops
<1> no problems
<1> and this was for a tech support company that did a lot of emails
<0> can the same server also run file share
<0> like right now
<0> we mapped g: to the harddrive on the server
<0> and we access files on it
<0> mostly .xls, .doc etc.
<0> we dont run any software off it
<0> just open .xls etc.
<0> and we will also want to run exchange on it
<2> Hedgie what does your company actually do?
<1> yup that shouldn't be a problem either
<0> ***et management
<0> hedge fund
<0> hence the screen name
<0> hah
<1> during full file transfers of significant size.. you will experience some lag, but only the duration of the transfer
<1> but if these are < 100mb files you aren't going to notice a thing
<2> hey why do they call them hedge funds?
<2> it seems most of them do the opposite of hedging
<2> but take big bets
<0> well
<0> traditioanlly
<0> they were the one guys who
<0> were market neutral
<0> i suppose
<2> i see what you mean
<0> thats where the name came from
<2> hedge away overall market risk
<0> ya
<2> and stick to pure stock picking
<0> so all your gains
<0> are pure alpha
<2> buy a mil of Yahoo and short a mil of google
<0> you remove all other risk
<2> etc.
<0> ya
<2> ok, i guess it's not as much of a misnomer as i thought
<0> or like

<0> and short treasury bills
<2> IOs?
<0> interest only securities
<2> wha does that maen?
<0> securitized mortgage product
<0> brb
<2> so you buy the credit spread or something?
<3> that sounds like long short funds?
<2> there are definitely some hedge funds which have nothing to do with the word hedge
<2> they're just trading funds
<2> that try to outtrade the market
<2> which is fair enough
<2> hedge fund is just a name that's stuck i guess
