I wasnt talking about the $2,000,000 total I was talking about the equation itself. I can just include minus $10,000 at the end of what I wrote. I was saying isn't the way I did the equation much simpler and easier to follow than the way you did yours?

Isnt the easiest and fastest way to do it like this? $100 divided by .50c = 200 multiplied by $10,000 = $2,000,000

Thank you for helpin me out. I really appreciate it!

If you invest $10,000 at .50c a stock and cashout when the stock price hits $100, how much would you make? If you invest $10,000 at $2.50 a stock and cashout when the stock price hits $125, how much would you make? If you invest $10,000 at $10 a stock and cashout when the stock price hits...

Does it make sense to compare the prices of things from today to the prices of things back in the day? No... I had to pay insane prices for things back then as well which if I compare it to how inexpensive the same things are these days it isn't even remotely close. Just like your example...

This is how inflated CDR prices are these days... For CDR's to be the same price as the DVDR's I mentioned (100 DVDR's for 25.49) The equivalent of that is 3.50 for a 100 pack of CDR's which obviously won't ever happen. The price for 100 CDR's is miles away from 3.50.

CDR's these days are considerably more expensive than DVDR's for some crazy reason. http://www.newegg.ca/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=100007590%20600010561%20600010573&IsNodeId=1&name=100%20Pack%20-%20600%20Pack Thanx Mark44... The best deal is the Blu Ray discs at about 4...

Which is the best deal out of these options and how do you figure it out mathematically? Do you calculate it down to the megabyte...gigabyte or per disc? I am not sure how to do it correctly. The 3 options are... 30 pack of 25GB Blu Ray Discs for 29.99 50 pack of 8.5GB DVDR DL for 51.99...

Thanks Ryan. I wasnt sure if you meant miles or meters. Is it possible to estimate which atomic scale that transistor was manufactured at from the link I posted? And what size would a grain of salt represent from my original question compared to the size of that transistor? Thank you for...

I did but you didnt mention any objects.

So what object would represent the size of the grain of salt?

No. I'm reading this... http://nextbigfuture.com/2012/02/single-atom-transistor-is-perfect.html?m=1 and I'm curious about how small that really is.

What object would represent the size of a grain of salt at this scale? Would it be bigger than Earth?

Will using USB 1 and USB 2 devices in the same desktop PC that has USB 2 ports slow down performance because of the USB 1 device being added to the system? I know that if you use a USB 2 hub and add a USB 1 device to it that the entire hub slows down to USB 1 speed. But I am interested to know...

Thank you for your help I really appreciate it. So it looks like 30 bottles are the best bargain if I followed your advice correctly? The beer prices don't really seem to be very rational here. You would think that buying cans would be less expensive than bottles. Especially when they have a...
