scanshift,

The PCQuote article is interesting. It is extremely complimentary towards Terra Nova, which doesn't help your case much:

"We are pleased to partner with Terra Nova", Porter added. "They are well-known,
respected and fully understand the intricate architecture involved. Investors could not ask
for a more experienced team than with two on-line pioneers - Terra Nova in on-line trading
and PC Quote in on-line real-time quotes".

"We wanted to assemble a truly comprehensive package for our investors - with all of the
necessary tools for success," stated Jerry Putnam, President of Terra Nova Trading L.L.C.,
"We selected PC Quote not only for its comprehensive application but because we wanted
to offer our clients the fastest, most reliable datafeed available. The most integrated,
sophisticated tools in the world mean nothing if your quotes are two minutes behind the
market."

I'm not up on the internal politics of Terra Nova as you seem to be, but it appears to me that Terra Nova's intention is to offer PCQuote to all Terra Nova subscribers. I don't see where that creates a problem for MBT customers. If PCQuote became the new quote provider and they are faster and better than the one Terra Nova is using now (I forget the name of it..Saturday morning brainlock), that would be good news IMO.

But keep the info coming. I'd like to see everything you've got.

Rick
