I have the aforementioned internet feed through Mytrack. I ran two
computers side by side. One on a standard phone line through an ISP and the
other through a cable modem. There was NO speed difference in displaying
prices. Of course, there is a huge difference when downloading graphics but
I guess that the price data packets are small enough so as not to make a
difference.
Hope this helps,
Howard
