Pronto is great if you are running a PIII/Athlon 1.5GHz, w/ 1024MB of RAM. For those of us with a k6-II 400Mhz, w/ 64MB of RAM may want to avoid pronto. I admit thatfeaturewise, stability, and threading ability pronto is hard to beat.

But Bynari's Tradeclient runs a close second and uses 1/3 the RAM of Pronto.

Doesn't support local mail. It only handles pop etc-( Pronto just seems to hang while the installer is running-( Nick

I run Pronto at home on a K6-500 with 48 MB. The starting up is indeed a bit slow, but once the stuff is loaded it's FAST! -- Koos Pol ---------------------------------------------------------------------- S.C.
