I don't know what your present VGA card is or if you even have an AGP slot.&nbsp;
If you have AGP, get the Matrox G400.&nbsp; They have 2 versions of the
G400, regular and Max.&nbsp; Make sure you get a card with Dual-Head technology.&nbsp;
The Max comes with this.&nbsp; The G400 Max is the fastest card Matrox
makes and the retail box version costs about $240.
<p>The Dual-Head technology is unique to Matrox; No one else offers it.&nbsp;
With Dual-Head, you get 2 SVGA 15-pin connectors built in the card and
can connect 8 different combinations.&nbsp; This includes CRT-CRT, CRT-LCD,
CRT-TV, etc...&nbsp; Yes, you can connect your TV and use it as a separate
monitor (preferably something high quality such as a Sony 27").&nbsp; Even
though you have 2 different devices connected, you can specify not only
what is displayed on each, you can adjust the refresh rate on each to your
liking.
<p>I think this is the simplest way to connect 2 monitors to a computer.&nbsp;
With the new GPU-based video cards coming out now, Matrox's G400 Max is
no longer the fastest card on the market.&nbsp; Nevertheless, it is still
equal in speed to the TNT2 Ultra (previous generation of cards).&nbsp;
Matrox always makes high quality cards.&nbsp; Their drivers are excellent
and the G400 is the ONLY card on the market with this Dual-Head feature.&nbsp;
Unless you play games, this is the ONLY card to get.

<p>Page discussing DualHead Multi-Display:
<br>http://www.matrox.com/mga/products/mill_g400/applications/dh_multi.htm
<p>Matrox announced months ago they would be releasing G200-based 4 &amp;
8 multi-monitor cards.&nbsp; They should be coming out with this card soon.&nbsp;
Because it is based on the G200, I expect this card to be the fastest,
have the highest quality picture, and best drivers, available for a true
multi-monitor card.&nbsp; If you plan use 4 or 8 monitors, wait for Matrox's
G200-based multi-monitor cards.

The symbols update is apparently a poblem on Equis end.  They haven't said 
when the problem will be resolved.  

The Organizer, a method of exporting/importing indicators, explorations, 
experts doesn't work when a complex trading system refers to variables in 
other indicators.
ie. you can't send a complex trading system to your partners or even create a 
backup for yourself.  As far as E-signal, I haven't tried it, so I don't know 
how it works.  

The main program seems to work as advertised.  

If you are going to buy and use some one else's trading system, I'd plan on 
entering the system by hand into the computer.  Importing is kind of a 
nightmare.
