If you read on, you'll see the following disclaimer :

"The Company intends to use commercially reasonable efforts to complete its
Year 2000 solution for TradeStation 4, OptionStation 1.2, TradeStation
ProSuite 4 and SuperCharts 4 by no later than June 30, 1999. However, there
can be no assurance that unanticipated difficulties will not delay the
Company's Year 2000 efforts, or that modifications made will not adversely
affect existing functionality of those products in ways not currently
anticipated by the Company. "

In other words, you'll get it when we're ready, and if it blows up your
existing sytems, too bad.

Good trading.
