TradeStation Technologies (formerly Omega Research)
is more interested in motivating customers into
leasing TradeStation Pro than in buying 2000i.
It's actually good business for them, since, in the
long run, they will get more $$$ from the renewable
income.
What they do not know is that in about October, there
will be a new product from a heretofore undercover firm
that will be many times more powerful than TS Pro and will
SELL for a fraction of the price. I can't say much
more at this point, except this product is being developed
by 15 world-class programmers with about 30 man-years of
labor already into it. They have also examined TradeLab and
claim theirs is better. 'nuff said.
So, if you are using TS4 and don't like leasing software,
you may want to wait a few more months.

Subject: Cruz Brothers and 2000i
I think Omega has made a terrible marketing mistake with 2000i. I am a
systems vendor who sells systems in ELS code only. As some of you know this
is a more secure data type and it is not read by TS4. However, the vast
majority of TS4 owners have not upgraded to 2000i (or they still use
supercharts).
I think the reason for this is that the 2000i upgrade is GROSSLY
overpriced!!!!! People dont want to bother with it. When is the marketing and
management dept. going to realize that 90% of $100 is better than 5% of
$700!!!!
Cmon guys!!! Motivate people to upgrade! Get the upgrade price WAY down so
people will want to do it. I am going to be forced to move off of your
platform and to a stand alone environment because of this. Many other vendors
I have spoken to are saying the same thing........I hope your
listening........
Thoughts?
