OFF TOPIC: Re: Request For Respect Of Others Needs

I think it's great you have 2 computers, one at home with a digital connection
and one laptop for the road.  However, it's not right for you to ask people to
stop sending emails to the list just so you can use your second laptop for the
road.  The extra emails are usually less than 4K each, less than the spam I'm
getting hit with every day now, and I'm using a 56K dialup.

The Windows, dual-monitor, and other topics are related to MetaStock.  If you
don't believe me, you can look at the Elite Trader site on setting up a trading
station:

If you don't want the inconvenience of getting messages on the road, you should
set another email address for getting your ListServ mail.
