Re: Cruz Brothers and 2000i

MY Opinion is that Omega or TradeStation Technology, does not want customers
to upgrade to 2000i they want them to upgrade to TradeStationPro. Have you
noticed how much programming Omega has done on 2000i in the past year.
Almost none. They have applied all their talent to TradeStationPro. The
bottom line is that Omega is making it cost effective to upgrade to TSpro
and not cost effective to upgrade to TS2000.  I upgraded to 2000i because
TSPro did not have futures prices when I looked at it. If they add futures
prices to TSPro I believe it will be a good product.  So do not expect Omega
to push 2000i..
