<<Still just have the 17 " monitor so it does get crowded but until I move up to the 400 with NT, this will do.>> I seriously thought about NT for the added reliability. Problem is you need expensive video cards to run more than one monitor. I'll wait till NT 5.0 or Win2000. IdiotJed

JAS, You just answered a recurring problem I have been having.I run a 266 AMD-3D now chip and am hooked to ADSL on MPower....the one John can't get in the city.(I am rural LOL)I think my problem is I only have 32MB of RAM and I see Stockwatch recommends 128MB if we are keeping open the number of browsers we use.I have had the computer slow to a crawl and blamed it on ADSL but I now know thanks to you that I do not have enough RAM.I have even had the computer lock up on a couple of occassions and have told MPower that the system must be loaded as the thing slows to a crawl.I usually have a couple of windows of stocks running on RT Ticker,SI,RBCNet Action,and a couple other sites off and on.No wonder it is dying.Computer grinds and groans and sounds like it is going to blow up........sooooooo....I think I need more RAM and am going to look for it to-day.....Thanks Osprey
