Well yes Maurice, now that you mention it, I'm jacked to the sky about Eudora but then that's usually the effect of reading your posts. Not meaning to throw a t*rd in the punch bowl, but don't count the bankers out just cuz their zipping Eudoradollars[TM] around the globe at the speed of photons. Those boys part with their precious float about as readily as you'd give up that heart/lung device in your chest cavity.
Example: I instruct my dearly beloved Bank Institution X to send Y dollars to American Express on 5/18/99. Checking my account the evening of 5/18 those buckeroos have indeed left the barn. Now, traveling at 186,000 miles per second, how long does it take those hard earned greenbacks to get to AmEx in Nooo Yawk Citteee? About 4 business days on average. (Silly me, I thought it was only about 3,000 miles from my little village to the Big Apple but then math was never my strong suit).
Moral of the story: buy CheckFree (CKFR) and at least make a few bucks on the banks cuz the rest of the time, you be the payor and not the payee. Rockefeller was NOT the slowest little bunny in the warren: if he had his way, your dough would hit NZ on the same day Cabi issues a "Strong Buy" on the Q. From the School of Economic Hard Knocks, perfesser SM.
