<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3>Equis' answers provided you with the basic minimum
requirements, and </FONT><FONT size=3>added also</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3>were their </FONT><FONT size=3>recommendations and suggestions
(from experience).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3>In it, I did not read that you should also get the
cheapest PC, merely what you need</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3>for minimum sufficiant hardware to enable you
to run the MS-program without having</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3>problems and not being stuck with "insufficiant (hardware)
components".</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV></FONT><FONT size=3>Remember, that cheap "in the beginning" will
<most of the time> also mean</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3>"dear in the end", eg follow the </FONT><FONT
size=3>suggestions that were made on this subject:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3>- by Equis in their mail and</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3>- by other listers on the List lately, </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3>and you will be in a much </FONT><FONT size=3>better driver's
seat for the present and near future:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3>- </FONT><FONT size=3>whilst working luxeriously in front
of your smooth operating PC and</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3>- whilst looking back at a reasonably </FONT><FONT
size=3>current PC in a couple of years time (later).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>More capacity, eg thus by adding/installing very sufficiant (hardware)
components,</DIV>
<DIV>one might be dear "in the beginning" but also ending up <over the
next few years</DIV>
<DIV>to come> to be "cheap in the end".</DIV>
<DIV>Over-doing this, will depend on your personal financial situation and
"in-experience"</DIV>
<DIV>with the technical details (In time read on up on the items in PC-mags and
in articles</DIV>
<DIV>published on the web).</DIV>

Give it a go using the ScriptIt-program.
(very straight forward automating tool/program/utility and
just requires you practising this program, eg much like
the MetaStock formula language). See my homepage

Actions-scheme in brief:
---------------------------------
-In DL: 1x Create a single "clone" DL Data file containing both sets of prices(New+Merge)
-In DL: Daily Update this "clone" (Merge+TaskScheduler(Win9.x))
-In MS: Open this "clone" and Run the SysTest
