Thanks Mike. I think I have most of those covered. Plan on at least 256 Meg of RAM and 2 regular monitors on the new trading computer. Will use one of the old computers for email and the chat rooms I subscribe to. I already have DSL so speed isn't a problem the only question being my new graphics card. I picked it up on eBay and it only has 32 meg of memory but for what I am doing that should be plenty. The only question now is which computer to get.
