I have 
not had TC2k for a few years... one of the reasons I dropped them was BECAUSE 
each time I would take the laptop on the road I was required to call them and 
have them change the key. When I was home I had to again call and change the 
key.

of TC2000?

Salil said>>>TC2000 customer support told me that they allow 
data-update on 2 computers.

I hope someone can clarify these apparent 
differences. 
We all know that support personell are not perfect, 
and sometimes they give out incorrect information. 
 
TC2k gave me different information regarding the 
use on two computers.  In  a phone conversation, they told me that 
since I already have one copy of TC2000, I could have a second copy for an 
additional $20 per month.  
 
However, they did say that users 
who subscribe to TCnet can use TCnet on two computers, but only one at a 
time could accept the live feed. This allows you to download the EOD 
data into each computer separately. You can then use it in TC2000 mode on one 
computer, while you are getting the live feed in TCnet mode on another 
computer.  However, as stated above, you will not be able to run the live 
feed on both computers at the same time. <FONT face=Arial

Also, I understand that 
once their EOD data is downloaded into a database, you 
cannot subsequently transfer this EOD download from this database 
in one computer over to another computer.  How does my understanding 
of the TC2000/TCnet situation square with reality?  

 
Regarding speed, even when you have the data copied to your 
harddrive, I think I recall a TJ post which said that the TC2000 data is stored 
in such a way that it is inherently slower than QP2.  Ron

  Source QP2 vs TC2000
  
  Joe,Intra-day update is not important for me today, but it's a 
  nice feature to have.  TC2000 customer support told me that 
  they allow data-update on 2 computers.  That's pretty good. Also they 
  have no problem if I share *results* I may derive using their data, as 
  long as I don't share the actual data itself.  That's one more 
  additional point in favor of TC2000.  And of course they have no 
  problem if I export data and use it whatever else -

  less. One other thing that I didn't see mentioned is that TC2000 
  EOD data is updated intraday (with delay of course). Don't know 
  if this is important to you or not. We tried for a while to get QP to 
  do intraday updates, but no 
  dice...   Best regards,  Joe
