Jimmy:
After reading the original post about TS beta's performance, I was interested in
finding out if the posting was correct. I did speak [privately] with several
beta testers. They all seemed to like the new functionality of TS 5 and although
it does indeed take alot of computer to push it down the road, its needs have
been decreasing somewhat as the beta versions are being tweaked. It sounds like
an interesting upgrade that is still being finished--guess that's why they call
it beta.
I also spoke to someone testing the WOW-Daytrader beta you mentioned and yes, it
does indeed seem to be a loaded trailer looking for an expensive truck to haul
it. Oh well, I guess we'll all have to save some of those trading profits for
upgrading our systems. As long as the upgrades ARE upgrades, that's a fair swap:
New and added functionality requires current systems?
Best,
