I have been demanding a Y2K bug fix for TS 4.0 for over 9 months.  Janette
Perez, Bill Cruz's PR mouthpiece/puppet, has stated for the record that
there will be no Y2K bug fix for TS 4.0 until the TS 5.0 Pro-Suite products
are released.  If the release of the entire "suite" is implied or required,
then we may not see a Y2K bug fix until 1999.

Your perceived power over Omega is illusionary.  Bill Cruz will blow you
off as surely as he has everyone else who have raised these questions,
labelling you as another "Omega basher".  In Omega's universe, you are
nothing more than a small squeaky wheel.  Don't get me wrong, I'm on your
side.  But the Omega juggernaut cares for no one once they got your money
in hand.  Ask those who paid for the TS 3.5 upgrade and had to wait 2 years
to get it.

I see no choice but filing a class action lawsuit against Omega should they
continue to backpedal on the Y2K bug fix and push it back to 1999.  Perhaps
a large legal stick to the Omega's nose will get their attention.  If not,
then pass me a brown paper bag.
