Well, I have signed up for two places and don't have either of them working yet. I can say this: neither Linn software with Interquote nor BullSession are intuitively obvious in terms of configuring them and I'm floored about how to use either one. I'm planning to spend tomorrow on these problems.

As for Heineman at LinnSoft, he was very rude, kept trying to sell me on the price even though I had made it clear that I had already decided to buy it, and misconstrued my observations (that his "partners" in the quote systems either deny they work with the Mac entirely (Track Data) or removed all mention of his software from their home pages (Interquote), and that almost no one in the investment community ever heard of him -- as attacks. I was trying to suggest that he could be benefitted by relationships that acknowledged his company. He was very nasty and said I wasn't telling him anything he didn't know and acted as though I were trying to criticize rather than help. So overall, he was pushy, aggressive, defensive, unpleasant, rude to me. If there were any other software that would do what I need, assuredly I will drop Linnsoft immediately. BullSession might be it. Hopefully I'll know within the next few weeks, should have time to test both.
