I too was a user in the old DOS days. The DOS
version was fast and easy to use once you memorized
all the hotkey shortcuts.

If you can only choose between the two,
choose OptionVue.
Am a satisfy customer (OV5, since the old DOS version)
too :)
One annoyance though - their symbol configuration
for the sp datafeed future options is not correct
originally and I have to manually set the symbols ...
have not check if they fixed that because I have
done the dirty part myself already.
sp comstock has a totally different way representing
the option symbols comparing to DTN or BMI ...
so beware.
