I just received a demo disk in the mail yesterday - they were happy
to send it out when I called them up to inquire about the new S/W.
It comes with a nice little glossy brochure too. I have not
yet had a chance to really look it over, but here are the quick
highlights:
- Requires 286 or better with EGA, VGA or Herc monitor (Not CGA
compatible, which is why I have not been able to look at it :-()
Will use EMS/Extended memory if present.
- Has the typical "window-like" appearance, but does not require
a mouse. (Icons, GUI, help etc)
- Allows for tracking multiple portfolies, will even do graphing
of the historical info it has downloaded (over time)
- Allows for all sorts of news filters and alerts, and it does
appear to write all this stuff to disk as it goes along.
- 800 number tech support line.
If I get a chance to run the demo on someone else's computer, and have
anything to add I will.
Regards,
Mark M.

New subscribers get it free. In fact they have a deal for newbies
