<BODY bgColor=#ffffff>
<DIV><FONT color=#000000 face=Arial size=2>I am currently almost two weeks into
the trial period using this combo. AIQ is ok, but not very "user
configurable". It has a few nice features, but seems
overpriced. I guess you're paying for their proprietary "expert"
indicators (which don't work with the real-time charts). However, the
combination of AIQ, plus MyTrack real-time date at $79 + exchange fees, seemed
like a pretty good deal. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT color=#000000 face=Arial size=2>I'm having problems with the AIQ
freezing fairly consistently while loading the MyTrack data. Tech support
gave me a suggested change, but when that didn't work, they said they were
referring the problem to an engineer. That was a week ago, and I haven't
heard back.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Linnsoft (<A
href="http://www.linnsoft.com";>www.linnsoft.com</A>) also has a package deal
with MyTrack, which is slightly more expensive than the AIQ deal.
It's not advertise anywhere on the web that I could find, and was told about it
when I called the Linnsoft sales number. If AIQ doesn't come up with a
solution for my freezing problem, I'm probably going to give them a
try.</FONT></DIV>

All,
I wanted to share some performance enhancements with the list.
There discussions are often emails about performance issues using the
downloader.
I was experimenting performance problems with eplorations taking 16 minutes
each on my computer on 9000 stocks organized into 26 sub-directories
(K6-233, 96 Mb RAM, 2 ATA IDE drives (4.6 + 6.4 Gb), Windows NT workstation
SP4).
I tried using supercache NT 4.01e from eecsys (www.eecsys.com or
www.belt-sofware.com). This is a disk cache utility with read ahead and
write back (i.e. data is not written at once on the disk but kept in cache
for a few seconds).
I set the cache to write-back and auto-configure (it's not fine tuned yet).
Now the exploration time is 6 minute each. So performance is really
improving with that utility.
I will give improvements I will get updating data. My first impressions are
that it goes faster and disk activity seems smoother too.
