I'm using it on a 3 monitor Win98 system with relatively little problems. (I noticed that RT3's older version leaked resources, but the newer version seems to be better) In any event no Win98 related problems.

It probably is, but IMHO you are much better off to run on NT 4.0. I have used Realtick III on 95 / 98 for a couple of years and never could get it nearly as stable as I now have it on NT. Also I feel that the TCPIP connectivity and data transfer are also alot better on NT. Previously when I had an error with realtick, it required a reboot of the machine, redial ISP and log back on. With NT if realtick does give an error, that single application can be ended and restarted without having to reboot and reconnect to ISP. Also any other errors with mIRC chat or your browser can be terminated leaving the dialup connection and other apps intact. With the robustness of NT and all of the pluses, I can't see any reason to not use NT for a serious trading platform. Some have mentioned the multi-monitor support as being an issue, but NT fully supports multi monitors as long as both cards are identical models. My two Matrox Milleniums work just great. Sorry to ramble, this may be more than you asked for. For me the only choice is NT. Good Luck Dan
