I bought my SuperCharts in 1993 (maybe early 1994) - and I didn't give any
thought to Y2k stuff then - because I'd never heard of Y2K. At this point - I'm
not sure what I'm going to do. I wouldn't mind paying a reasonable charge for
an upgrade - but one certainly isn't coming for my product - and - judging from
the messages I'm reading here - perhaps there won't even be an upgrade for the
latest version of SuperCharts. I'm just waiting - and watching - and thinking.
