>>>. Or is it a problem on the bank's side? It's not on the banks side (or at least what I'm talking about a simple check register as found in a checkbook), for example... Date CHK#/E-Pay Payee Amount Balance ------------------------------------------------------------- 01/01/99 n/a Begin Bal. $100.00 $100.00 01/02/99 E-Pay MCI Worldcom $ 20.00 $ 80.00 01/10/99 E-Pay Souther Co. $ 40.00 $ 40.00 I know this can be done (as far as storage, etc.) AOL just bought a company When.com, which provides calendar-organizing technological features will allow AOL customers to enter online appointments and dates, as well as keep track of holidays, special public events and other important days on the calendar. I don't see why CF/YHOO could offer this as an optional service. Benny(IMHO)

From my experience, of all the resources that you mentioned, only broadband really matters Moving all that history over the net every time, storing all that history (for how long, years?!), that is the two big issues. True CPU is the most easily overcome obstacle (thank you Intel) but even after you download it to the screen every time and you allow the customer to specify the date range, you still have people that with their cable modems want "it all", so their goes the broadband, the ports on the mainframe, even in a multi-threaded environment you'll have big bottle necks. Desktop aggregation is still going to take place at the desktop level for sometime to come -PFMs rule!
