I thought I heard Sony in a prior post so I assumed notebook.
As far as quiet you are not alone there. I ended up swapping two of my machines cause one was too damn loud.. At night I couldn't leave the TV on cause it needed to be too loud to overcome the masking noise of the PC.
Yeah many folks overlook quietness but when you spend countless hours you need the system to be ergonomic and unobtrusive...
I've still got my EPEX. Hoping I reach my original target but we'll see, any profit is a good profit.... Also still have PEL for same reason I guess as you. It ain't really moved yet and if I can pick up a few more squeakers first so much the better... As for the rest well my trusts are LTBH unless they get ridiculously overpriced and resisting profit taking becomes just silly :o)
On gold well who the heck knows.. Saddam couldn't budge it before.. now I'm actually hoping the the masses finally pick it up as their own (we're probably still just transferring a lot of money from one goldug to another at this point :o) as a real investment alternative with the latest moves and press coverage... a few of mine are ripe now but reflecting back on the comparative valuations of last July, well... quite a difference in some..
