KymarFye: **OT** I don't think you need a trading work station. I am running a PIII 800 with 256K and three 19" monitors powered by one AGP 32-meg card and two PCI 32-meg cards with Windows ME as the OS.

Works great...

I use an IBM AMD K6 450 with 128K and one 17" monitor powered with one AGP 8-meg as my trading system backup. I also use it to access SI, surf the web and make online trades during the trading day...<g>

Each computer is configured with identical software so the IBM can back up the Micron and visa versa. They are also networked together with the Linksys DSL router/hub and Linksys NIC cards.

In addition, each trading computer (primary and backup) is powered by a separate APC BackUps Pro 650 for each and is configured to access the net via a modem on different phone lines using backup ISPs, just in the case the DSL line goes down.

By the way, the market (NYA & COMPX) appears to be following the direction suggested by the two day intraday bearish trading patterns...<g> This should be an interesting close...

Regards,
LG
