I have been using PC-Quote for quite some time. It had some minor problems
occasionally, most of which were not during the trading hours. I do not use
Omega TS. PC-Quote communicates directly with my own trading program through
DDE in real-time. It works fine and fast.

However, Omega disputed this. In order to settle the issue, PCQuote has
built a new server farm that will serve Omega customers only. All Omega
("Hyperfeed") customers are being moved to that farm now. This will allow a
clear comparison to be made between service to TS and service to other
platforms. PCQuote believes that this will show where the problems "really"
are.
