George,
I think by far the most important difference between
TS2000i and TS Pro is that the latter allows you to
analyze any stock you want, not just the ones you've
been downloading for the past few years. So if you
want to analyze the hot stocks of the day it is easy.
TR Pro does everything RT III does and adds in news
and programmable systems indicators. And it's
cheaper. No stupid waste of bandwidth or hard disk
space. You can't beat it. You will never spend a day
trying to understand what some indicator formula is
either. Be sure to have gone through
http://tradestationpro.com/education/06_01/tutorials/
which will clear up most questions. I didn't even
know about those tutorials until yesterday.

The beta tester I spoke with said this is in the
tradeable version of TS Pro, which should be open to
us any day.
