Re block trading volume and institutional buying. Mutual funds investment houses and other large institutions often use multiple brokers and mm to do their buying. by spreading it around and buying in smaller blocks they can conceal their actions. The time tested accumulation will be price increase on heavy volume and that is what I see starting to occur. Time will tell but I too think that the kind of jump in price we saw Wed. on good volume suggest non retail buying. Now the question..How many institutions are buying? I f as I expect based on AL efforts with the street there are probably alot of institutions who have been waiting to jump and we may see the water level rise quickly if they get the feeling the ship is leaving port for the high seas.

Doug:

Is it likely to involve parallel processing , buffering and FPGA logic to obtain real time.?

I would bet that the new XLNX Virtex million gate FPGA fits in here somewhere:

''These million gate FPGAs enable our test modules to provide thousands of continuous measurements at telecom speeds up to 2.4 gigabits per second,'' said Carl Uyehara, vice president of engineering at Adtech, Inc., a leading supplier of broadband test systems.

''We especially like the fact that Virtex FPGAs are programmable. This allows us to use a single test module for multiple transmission technologies such as ATM and frame relay, which provides huge cost savings and convenience for our customers plus future enhancement capability.''
