Pierre:

I hope your Beta whatever is year 2000 and not year 200 compliant.

And besides, my software can beat up your software... SO THERE!

 There is a term for such software and it is called "alpha". If in fact,
Omega
 has released beta software without the Y2K fix, then the users on this
list
have
 every right to question the inclusion of Y2K compliance in TS5 ... perhaps
that
 is now scheduled for TS 5.5. Or perhaps Omega would rather its beta
testers
and
 customers not realize that the software has not yet reached beta stage.

I received TS5 beta 8 this morning, and this version IS YEAR 200 COMPLIANT,
Easy Language functions date related included.
I sincerelly hope that you will now give us a definitve rest with posts
like
above.
More, you are not a TS beta tester, and I'm not a gossip tester too.

>From an other more recent post:
<<
The disillusioned and disgusted are watching development of Wow's DayTrader
Pro
and Scientific Approach's TradeLab. Both should offer formidable
competition
to
TS. Either or both may arrive on the scene around the same time as TS5. All
3
are running behind original schedule.

I always wonder why people could be so annoyed and disgusted by TS4 (A
software that exists since 7 years) and are still watching the competition
still in its vaporware stage.
How a professional programmer like you could have been unable to develop a
satisfactory trading system with TS4 (and below) during these years, and
could
expect better results by changing to an other better software that do not
really exists for the moment ?
If it's not the case, why so much and so much posts saying always the same,
every time that the occasion may occur, or when you even create it ?

No doubt that TradeLab will be a very good piece of software, but Bob
Brickey
is also late on his planning (what I perfectly understand , due to the task
to
be done).
Curiously (you may read fortunately), you have no sharp word for him, and
countless against Omega, your main activity on this list since months.

When I try to measure your objectivty (see above, and read again what I
wrote
months ago about Y2k), I feel that I'm not so far from the truth.
