Re: TS2k NT speed

Here, here Lynn! With as many problems that plague Omega and TS2K, I cannot
afford the time to mess around with operating systems, bug fixes, and calls
to Omega to get my software running and stable enough to trade. My
livelihood depends on serious trading, not playing around with the latest
software. This is a business not my hobby. I question how a serious
daytrader can earn a living if he has to spend a good amount of his time
playing with software just to get it up and running much less dependable. I
know how busy I am during the trading day and I sure don't have the time to
do anything but watch the market, constantly evaluate, and then trade
accordingly. I would not be surprised to find the "majority" of TS2K users
to be either EOD users or daytrader wanna-be's. Notice I said "majority".
