While I am sure that that the DTN Ethernet is the fastest way to go and I
hope Omega Research will change their mind and choose to support it, I find
that using a Digi high speed serial card with the new DTN satellite feed
gives very satisfactory results using TS2000i and Win2000. I consistently
have the highest tick counts on Eminis (compared on this list) and my
quotes in TS2K run tick for tick with the PATS JTrader internet feed via a
very clean DSL connection. In my experience, DTN satellite is much more
stable and reliable than the net. Usual disclaimer - no connection with DTN
other than as customer - etc.

Jim Alvis
