As the question is stated, you can get these quotes from Yahoo each hour yourself, or set up a streaming quote ticker.
But if you want these quotes saved to your computer automatically, then you have to have software to do that, and a full time data feed, which you'll probably pay for.
If you open a brokerage account, they supply the software, and usually offer the data feed at reasonably low cost, or no extra charge. I pay $250 per month for a full data feed of all futures, options, stocks, commodities, and currencies, which includes the software lease.
But I used a DTN satellite dish for about eight years to gather data and store it onto my computer, and it is only about $50/mo, but you have to purchase the software separately.
Once you have the software set up and the data feed, you can collect the data every minute, every 5 minutes, every hour, or at the end of the day, or anywhere in between. This will depend on your charting and analysis software, and what you're trying to do.
Hope this helps. If not, repost your question with more specifics.

There is no such thing as an hourly quote. You can either get real-time quotes or get open, high, low, and close prices at the end of day.
