OT - Try this for system configs: www4.techstocks.com

I use a PII-233mmx/128meg Ram/Win98-SE with 3 21" monitors (ATI Expert98 16Meg PCI cards) and has no problem keeping up with the 56k modem CSW feed. There is no advantage to using APG card in multi-monitor config.

Jimsy, I am testing PC Quote this week and find it to be excellent.
I have a DSL connection and Stockwatch can be slow even when everything else on the Internet is fast.
I think it is a problem with their servers, but that is just my opinion.
Stockwatch offers a few features that are very helpful for checking company trading history quickly so I think I'll keep both.

With PC Quote you get live tickers on the CDNX, which Stockwatch doesn't provide.
With stockwatch you only seem to get live (java) ticker on the TSE so you have to keep clicking for quote updates and I think I'm getting arthritis in my right hand from so much clicking!!!

PC quote is about $280.00 (CAD) per month for portfolio, charts and market depth.

Hope this helps.

OKay..This is what I got and unless CSW goes down, it works fine for me...

I've gotta Dell 400 with 128mgs ram and 12gegs of memory...17" Trinitron monitor and I can't remember which video card, but my son order their most expensive one when we got it...

If you want fancy with multiple monitors ask the Chief, Kevin Hamlin or Keith Massey...

When I go multiple screens, they'll be the ones I'll seek (and hope to obtain <ggg>) advice from...
