What's that OS on the top monitors? Is that Solaris or AIX with CDE?
Christopher Martinez
>paying six figures a year for a fucking computer
Apple ain't got nothin' on this shit.
Jaxon Rivera
I dunno, sorry.
Jackson Lewis
Bloom((((berg))))
Kayden Miller
are those terminals custom hardware?
I thought Bloomberg was just like some Level1 subscription service
Henry Lopez
Listen, thou lying Girgashite, for you will be turned into a pillar of salt! Thinkpad is the best laptop in terms of usability, price and support.
John Smith
Oh hey I used to intern at Bloomberg. The terminals are fun to use once you get the hang of them.
Aiden Allen
Looks like solaris to me as well
Caleb Collins

Good goy.

Bloomberg terminals are interesting beasts and I dig their style, but
a) no one on Jow Forums has any use for them
b) and most certainly not the funds for them, but mostly
c) they are a totally different thing from thinkpads, you retard.
Alexander King
The monitors and keyboards are custom, I think. The software is just a JavaScript thin client running on Windows these days.
Zachary Baker
>a JavaScript thin client running on Windows these days
so impossible to haXor then, you be sayin..
Caleb Butler
There's nothing to hack.
Jace Miller
Solaris
Carson Rogers
Fuck your Bloomberg. Reuters Eikon for life
Noah Watson
Literally what'st'd
Carson Russell
Serious question. Does anyone has any clue how much to rent a Bloomberg terminal/ year?
Jose Watson
Like 24k a year
Gavin Cox
About $25k per user per year
Juan Moore
$26k, at least.
user auth ? theoretically, of course.
Mason Ward
This is my home setup.
Some Unix shit to run some proprietary application that they haven't had the dev budget to decom yet. Most banks still have shitty applications.
Tyler Brooks
Previous poster here. Mine is $2.2k/month. You get the software and analytics.
Ayden Butler
I would say $27k
Brandon Cruz
I used to service these back when I was working helpdesk at uni. Fun times. I think like 3 people on the entire campus actually knew how these things worked lmao.
Lincoln Martin
>home setup
Please elaborate.
Eli Nguyen
They run some interesting keyboards.
Luke Diaz
>all these fucking charts and I’m still losing money
Brody Wright
so tell me something, always wondered,
if you are trading from home, how to stop yourself going near the damn thing when you're drunk?
>gee, think ahll go drunk option shitbuying
Nathaniel Walker
>imagine being this mad about some else's preferences
Nicholas Ortiz
but i do
we have a bunch of bloomberg keyboards at work (and licenses of course) but no bloomberg monitors, we just use shitty lenovo ones. the fancy monitors and keyboards aren't required for running the terminal software but the keyboards have some extra buttons that can be useful. more people are moving to the bloomberg anywhere license where you can log in on any computer or mobile device.
you'll need to hack pic related
eikon is shit (but cheap)
Ryan Jackson
it would be very painful
Angel Bell
what did he mean by this
