I installed SP4 and everything seems to be working just fine.  You will lose
some chart settings as the upgrade sets everything back to the program's
default settings, but that is easy enough to change.  Previous workspaces
seem fine and they do load faster, although I am not sure it is twice as
fast as Omega stated.  I don't use any indicators except for simple spreads,
so really can't comment on EL.  But the previous bugs I knew about in SP3
are resolved - and let's hope there aren't any new ones.

There are 3 files on Omega's Website which make up SP4, although you only
need to install one of them.  The other two are an updated Help file and an
update to Universe.   All 3 files total over 30mb to download, but the one
required file is about 15mb.  This is no problem with a DSL line or cable
modem, but will obviously take awhile with a 56k modem.  You may also
request SP4 on CD, but that is not shipping until mid-January.
