upgrades and data sources - are you happy with yours?

Hi - my wife and I took a break from using TS4.0 and OptionStation 1.2 for 
several months due to an illness in the family.  We're wanting to go back 
on-line and I'm wondering

1--Is the $2100 for upgrading my two packages to the complete 2000
package a good investment--that is does it work better?

2--With the upgrade, does anyone know whether Braincel or Mark Jurik's 
software packages will continue to work as before?

3--Do you get a better and perhaps more economical choice of data feeds?  (I 
was told that the cheaper costs of getting a realtime data feed over the net 
would save money in the long run.

4--Are the 32 bit packages faster and more robust--that is, are the glitches 
that caused crashes earlier fixed?  Do you still get the symbol universe 
pains as before where support will tell you just to clobber it and rebuild 
it from scratch every time you run into problems?

5--Do you find the new features helpful?

Bottom line is that I'm afraid I'll spend $2100 on an upgrade, run into new 
glitches, not realize the lowered data feed costs and not notice greater 
connection choices and lose all my old favorite third party 
packages--Braincel, WAV, AMA, VEL, DDR, and CFB.  On the other hand, maybe 
things like this are included?  Or maybe there are upgrades appropriate?

Sorry for the long question.  Oh, yes, and did you find that your old 
systems and indicators would move across to the new system?
Is Option Station 2000 vastly better?  Is the Radar thing good?

Thanks!
