Quickcat I have my computer set-up with triple monitors 19" monitor in the middle, and 17" and 15" to the sides. PII 450 (actually it is an overclocked 300A) Abit BH6 Mother Board 128M PC-100 Ram Windows 98 Video cards - 16M Viper 550 AGP, 16M Viper 550 PCI and a Viper 330 PCI During a normal day trading day I split the screen on the 19" to have SI and CSW market movers/portfolio running at the same time. On the 15" screen I have the live market ticker with all the stocks I'm watching and market depth and a running list of trades for the stocks I'm trading or watching close. I have highlight set for 3 seconds so it catches my eye when a trade goes through. On the 17" monitor I normally have 8 day charts running on the monitor at the same time. To get everything to fit nice I bring it all up on the monitors than hit "tiles windows vertically" in the bottom right hand corner of the windows screen. This fits everything to your screen. In the background (on the task bar) I normally have Webbroker, Stockhouse and a couple other of my favorite sites running. I have a short cut bar to all my favorite sites (canoe, globe, CNN, carlson-online, etc.) so I can check them at a click of a button. I also have Metastock running in the background so I can do quick TA on the long term charts of stocks that are in play. This set-up works for me but I would like another monitor (at least a 25") to really keep an eye on things. Best Regards KEITH
