List,
The response from Support that Mr. Maas posted to the list about Dual
processors and MetaStock is incorrect. MetaStock WILL take advantage of
multiple processors because of it's multi-threaded design. We do everything
possible to ensure that we deliver you the correct information whenever you
contact our Support department. We have addressed this issue to make sure
that it does not happen again in the future. We apologize for any
inconvenience that this may have caused.
Thank you,
Lynn
Equis Support
