Hi guys, Remember me?, I've been on the MS list for a while and have posted some problems I had ( yes PAST TENSE ! ) working with my trading tools, namely, MS 6. I remember months ago Frank B Gaylord posted a message about problems he had with his computer crashes. He said had Windows 95 and upgraded to Windows NT 4. Apparently he made a good decision, Am I right, Frank?. Well, I followed his steps, I just upgraded to Windows NT 4, and, man, WHAT A DIFFERENCE !. I've been using / testing it for about ten days with several applications opened, including Excel 7, a time synchronizer, Metastock 6 and The Downloader, and a web site ( Interquote ) where I'm retrieving quotes MORE THAN 100 TIMES every day. You know what?, Windows NT 4 KEPT my system resources at a whooping  90 % !!. Also, I HAVE NOT HAD A SINGLE CRASH !, just minor messages about certain program not being able to run because of a missing driver or whatever. That's what I call A STABLE AND RELIABLE OS. It was an expensive option, but well worth it. Just wanted to share with you how happy I am with this decision. Hope everything keeps going all right. Of course, I wish you all the same if you ever want to make the switch to WINDOWS NT 4, THE BIIIIIIIG BROTHER OF Windows 95 !!. Good trading !. Efrain R Portales efrain12@xxxxxxxxxxxx P.S. When upgrading, make sure your computer MEETS THE HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS,         Windows NT4 lists  hundreds of compatible brands.
