I've never gotten it to work on my Mac, a powerbook with the latest Netscape Navigator. Mostly, it loads and then, nothing happens after the initial box that says to wait for the quote page to appear. Paul

Yesterday I had someone at Datek support tell me I would be better off using Mickeysoft Internet Exploder instead of Netscape. This doesn't fit well with my plans to jettison the Wincrap completely and use Linux full-time. Rock-solid reliability is one of my requirements for a trading station and I get that with Linux. Looks like it's time to look for another broker. I'm particularly interested in good availability of short shares. Anyone have any suggestions?
