Hey Pierre,
If a company such as General Motors or Ford can knowingly sell a car with
gas tanks that will erupt on impact in a crash, it can be sued for
endangering the lives of its passengers/owners (GMC trucks, Ford Pinto). If
Omega knowingly marketed a software program with flaws it in it, it should
be held accountable as well for endangering the livelihood(sp) of its
owners/users. That's common sense and that's the law.
Other than that, I love Tradestation!! It's the only software out there
that can give a "retail" trader the same edge an institutional trader has.
And if you really get into systems development, you can move far ahead of
them (they have to work with certain restrictions on what they can do and
cannot).
As for this country with its "poor logic and education", it has a 4.6%
unemployment rate, the biggest and only thriving economy in the world, and
the only military of any significant. France, on the other has an official
unemployment rate of 12%, an economy with barely any heartbeat, and a
laughable military record ( the last war France won was in the 17th
century...Indochina, WW2, WW1, Franco Prussian war, Napoleonic War, War of
Austrian Succession, French and Indian War, War of Spanish
Succesion....shall I go on? Though I will concede that the American
Revolution would have taken longer without French help.).
As much as I am a Francophile ( I love the Tour de France, Paris Roubaix,
Paris Tours, Tour of the Med, Paris-Nice..bike races. Je parle un tout
petit peu mais c'est n'est pas bon maintnent parce que je n'ai pas parle
pur six,sept ans.), your attitude is symptomatic of all that troubles
France. But that's on another note.
