Question for Mac users: Can you set alerts? I am especially interested in those. It's a Java program, so there isn't much difference between the Mac and PC versions. You set alerts the same way in both: Open Tracker (using the button). Choose Portfolio:Add [or Edit] Portfolio from the menu. Add the stocks you want to watch. Put in a high and low alert for prices. Since the market is closed, I can't confirm that the alerts are sounding on the Mac, but they can be set. And bugs? I've found some interface quirks that are low-level bugs, but nothing serious. It has run well on my PC for a month now. Never a crash. Never a hang. I've used it less on my Mac, but even there it works well, even if it's a bit slower on a slower machine with less RAM.
