@retail not so bad--problem is b-b. For example--Do you have a complaint with your online brokerage firm? If and when you do, it will pertain to matters of speed at their end. When will next gen equipment and software be moved in?
Right now no need because brokerage business is dead but they need to anticipate volume pickups in the future so the systems dont slow down. Right now nobody making the committment for the new equip and software needed to do this. They know they have to--one day. When will that day be? Three months ago it seemed imminent. Now we are in a hold mode again. Morgan's statement about all orders coming at once is scary now as the backlog of potential work builds. Bust and then Boom??? mike

OT: Did Dell replace the graphics cards for you in order to give you a more stable system at a reasonable cost or for free? My new Dell laptop occasionally crashes due to the NVDIA card.

Thanks, RtS
