AT A MINIMUM, to run the trading platform, you need a computer with the following:

• Windows NT/2000 (or 98, but NT/2000 is more stable)

• 256meg of RAM (512meg is preferred)
• 1 gigabyte hard drive (or larger)
• High-Speed internet connection such as Cable, DSL, T1, or ISDN (dial-up will work, but is not suitable for lots of quotes/charts, satellite introduces a delay of 1/4-3/4 of a second)
• CD-ROM
• Sound Card with speakers (Soundblaster LIVE! Value Sound Card to receive home office news broadcasts in the future)
• Headset with earphone/microphone
• 15" monitor - 800 x 600 min. resolution (larger monitor is preferred and multiple monitor configurations are best)
• UPS (Uninterruptable Power Supply)
