<<<<Datek, please don't change the Web interface.
Keep it SIMPLE. That's the whole point. Adding
more functions & graph will further slow down
the system. IMHO, the current interface is fine.
I don't want Datek's system spending precious
computing power on generating fancy HTML
files instead of processing orders efficiently.

If Datek moves all free quotes to a separated
server, I bet lots of people will be even happier.
For example, orders, orders2, ..., orders8 are dedicated
for order entry. To get quote, why not create a
server called quotes.datek.com.
Anyway, give the top priority to order entry.

Certainly this is only my dream.>>>>

I whole heartedly AGREE!

Your major emphasis going into 1998 should be to SIMPLIFY! Not to overburden your already overtaxed servers. Get rid of all non essential items--like the DATEK banner logo on every page.. Gee, like I don't already know my brokerage is Datek.

Everything should be in text as much as possible. Don't use Frames or boxes or grids. Just plain old fast text! I want fast executions--that's all. Not quotes. Make more express order 7 machines.
