I've heard a lot of good things about LeoWeb. I may use them in the future as a second account. I use RealTick from PC Quote. it's good; marginally faster than BMI although not as reliable with respect to uptime. BMI runs both Vista and a Mac software program. Another edge with RealTick is that's it's portable and one does not have to maintain the database. Also, my RealTick setup is roughly half the cost of BMI. I do get more data from BMI because I get Bond quotes. Still in all the price difference is quite large. Never used TS or WOW. As far as the rest of the set up, I run three machines, four monitors...one a 20" inch screen. I'm also blind as a bat as a result but if I had room for more equipment I certainly would use more monitors/computers. Seems like there never is enough charts up. Of course, figuring out which keyboard or mouse to go for when the pressure is on can be disconcerting but all in all I prefer the redundancy.

"ram man"<g>, I'm using Lind-Waldock and am pretty happy with their on-line trading system. I saw they are offering $22 RT rate on the e-mini. Check their website for info.
