Re: Year 2900 compliance

LIKE YOU HAVE SAID BEFORE: and I quote you:  VAPORWARE until its in our
hands!!!! You said it I didn't!  We still need to demand y2000 fix for TS
4.0.  It is criminal to tease and manipulate the users of TS, yes even scare
then into buying a TS 5.0 to save themselves from the y2000 problem.  So if
you are even more concerned than ever like I am.   Get off your butt and
start demanding y2000 compliance for TS 4.0 by sending Bill Cruz an email
each and every day.

This is a very serious criminal manipulation of their clients pocketbooks.
It should not be allowed to happen without retaliation from the consumers,
and will imagine it wont.  I would venture that the first law suite that is
now under private negotiations to settle against Omega will not be the last.

Thanks so much for the news of yet another press releases from Omega which I
can not believe.  It was so useful!  If you spent as much time attacking
Omega as you have defending them we would by now have had the TS 4.0 patch
they promised a half a year ago, which they didn't deliver.
