all the bugs i mentioned to you last night were in 0.61 (alpha) Ubuntu version namely:
1. multiple instances of Armory open simultaneously. 2. truncated displays in fund balances like psy mentioned. 3. freeze when multiple instances of Armory are open. 4. -0.00000001 balance displayed (nothing in wallet)

don't you think that if Vladimir is preparing his ASIC assault that Artforz, BitcoinExpress, etc. are fast on his coat tails if not ahead of him in planning their own operations? Vladimir does not operate in a vacuum.
the fact that Vladimir is moving forward on this makes me want to buy more Bitcoin. His operation will work to ensure the safety of them.

First everyone complains that Deepbit is going to take over the network. Then diversification with the likes of P2Pool seem to have eliminated that possibility.
Then Mystery Miner is supposed to be able to take over the network by ppl wildly extrapolating his growth. Then along comes Vladimir who will probably eliminate that possibility.
Then, the fact that Vladimir has done that, HE now becomes the next threat.
And on and on and on....

What's the point of showing update headers here if you can inform subscribers by e-mail? But deflation is welcome (as in: lower prices). ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif) b/c sometimes my subscription list malfunctions in email and the only way they or i know if they didn't receive it is to check here.

sorry, i just couldn't help myself to showing that the pundit you just quoted can be wrong too (perhaps short term but i doubt it) as i'm sure i will be in the future.
No harm no foul. I remember the dark days of $2.change BTC when it seems like you and I were about the only two people supporting it's potential. good memory. i remember those times too. it just that he sounds like an evangelist at this point. some of these guys like Eric Sprott are like 80-100% invested in the metals. thats an extraordinary risk as far as i'm concerned.
I'm all for diversifying and the only reason I don't personally don't practice what I preach more than I do is that I have relatively few responsibilities and the ability to take a financial hit better than a lot of people. I have to point out that it seems to me like you are promoting more of a position in bitcoin than I feel is prudent for most people. I'm a big fan of Bitcoin, but I cannot see how it is anything but a monster speculative investment (if it can even be called an investment per-se.) Much more risky than PM's even if one does not believe in them. Since I don't subscribe to your letter or whatever, I don't know the percentages you recommend for Bitcoin, but it _feels_ like you are suggesting a more heavy weighting than most people probably should take (in my opinion.) careful reading will reveal i have never recommended a particular % position in Bitcoin. i just advocate for it b/c i believe it will change the landscape of money sooner than later. i vaguely recall one person asking me once about what my % position is but i never advocate a %. when your investment thesis depends on a criminal like Ben doing what you want him to do, i think you're asking for problems. we all know that the CB's have control of the printing press. why would they use it to help ordinary ppl out of their debts via inflation and devalue their own wealth which has just got done going exponential via the bailout money <-> debt swap?
Believe it or not, I actually consider Bernanke more of a wizard than a criminal (though I am unconvinced that it's actually his brain doing the processing.) I am in some awe that he(?) has been able to keep things going to the extent that he has, but he has no real chance for long term success. Kind of like Sisyphus and his task. When Ben finally loses his battle with the rock I want to have control of some PM's first and foremost. I want to also have control of the BTC as a another tool in my toolbox, and also as a side-bet with huge upside potential. it is amazing he's kept it together but i think he is about to lose control once again.

I guess I'll feel free to poke fun at you if any of your calls go off by 1% for a matter of hours then? You may or may not have noticed, but the USDX got up to almost .80 for a time today. I'm surprised that PM's held up as they did to be honest, and I doubt that I am alone. USDX seems to ratchet back and forth while PM's just keep on ratcheting up. I can live with that. If somehow the rest of the world cannot hold the USDX up (by devaluing their own currencies) and it gets down to .72 again, it will be very interesting to see where the price of Gold and Silver will be. Any guesses? Or do you suppose that it is impossible to see those kinds of USDX numbers again? sorry, i just couldn't help myself to showing that the pundit you just quoted can be wrong too (perhaps short term but i doubt it) as i'm sure i will be in the future. it just that he sounds like an evangelist at this point. some of these guys like Eric Sprott are like 80-100% invested in the metals. thats an extraordinary risk as far as i'm concerned. when your investment thesis depends on a criminal like Ben doing what you want him to do, i think you're asking for problems. we all know that the CB's have control of the printing press. why would they use it to help ordinary ppl out of their debts via inflation and devalue their own wealth which has just got done going exponential via the bailout money <-> debt swap?

================= The following is courtesy of KingWorldNews.com:
Today legendary trader and investor Jim Sinclair told King World News the gold market has turned into a coiled spring that will be extraordinarily explosive on the upside. Sinclair also said that central banks have been aggressively accumulating gold because it is going to part of the monetary solution. But first, here is what Sinclair had to say about the gold market: “The attempt to keep (the gold market) from moving higher, creates, by nature, a spring, a coil as it were in markets. If the spirit of the gold market could have been broken, it certainly would have been broken down at the $1,500 level. This thing is turning into a spring, into a coil, and when it goes it’s going to be something to behold on the upside. Both in the shares and in gold itself.” ==================
My observation over the years is that when we have a year or so of chop, the last few months of the chop fall below the preceding trend line, then a new trend line with a greater slope comes into existence. Looks to me like we are getting to toward the end of this latest choppy pattern.
One way or another Sinclair was, by happenstance, one of the first people in the PM space who I started paying attention to, and in spite of his 'outlandish' claims that gold would hit $1650 which most people wrote off as completely bonkers at the time. Even if he does make a wrong call and I take a hit by listening to him it is most unlikely that it would erase more than a minor fraction of the gains which I can thank him, in part, for my realizing.
Sinclair is the guy who rode the last bull and stepped off at the top of the market in '80. I don't know if he was as free with his information and advice at that time since I was not around, but the guy seems to have an understanding of the markets. Does he have other motivations? It would be foolish to ignore the possibility. The same could be said for the provider of any financial advice however.
your timing was impeccable: http://www.kingworldnews.com/kingworldnews/Broadcast/Entries/2012/4/3_Jim_Sinclair_files/Jim%20Sinclair%204%3A3%3A2012.mp3Paraphrase: "gold and the shares are coiled to spring upwards in an explosive manner. in my opinion, 1630 was THE BOTTOM."
