....and the stories are from those fortunate enough to have
cable or DSL; many do not yet have either of those options
(myself included).

Also, what about having only one internet account? If you're
using your account to collect continuous RT quotes, it's
going to be tough to do anything else, right? For example, I
run LOS all day with ISDN and quite often have trouble
getting mail, news, d/l'ing files, or doing research on the
web. LOS either drops while a web page loads or I get
timed-out. I can't imagine where the same result wouldn't
obtain while collecting RT data =except= in that event I'd
be losing ticks.
