Folks who are having real time data problems might consider DTN sat for
which I pay 89 per month. I collect every price tick and every bid/ask tick
on every stock plus all indices (some 19k symbols)using Ts2k SP4b without
any problems. I have 65,781 ticks on Qcom and 1,863 ticks on NDX for
thursday, 1/27/00. The internet feeds are not up to snuff yet due to
inadequate bandwidth and I quit BMI cable and sat long ago due to problems
such as missing ticks.
Incidently SP4b is stable real time. No crashes whatsoever with a dead
clean install of NT4 SP6 and SP4b on a freshly formatted hard drive. I did
not reuse old data or workspaces. I tried to reuse SP3 data and workspaces
but they crashed me out instantly. Then I did the clean install and
recreated workspaces and downloaded data from Hbunk. Everyting OK since.
