For me its pointless to worry about this issue because it isn't yet an
issue. My hope is that they have designed TS Pro in such a way that future
enhancements can be migrated to the TS2000i product - but even if that's
not in the cards I'm not sure how important that really is.
Since the key potential destabilizing events - (a) the introduction of
Windows 2000; (b) decimalization for the stock folks - have now passed and
users are successfully using the software, it seems to me that even if they
decide not to further enhance the product, it will have a good number of
years of life ahead of it so long as data vendor support is there.
And aside from a potential consolidation or reduction in the number of data
vendors, I would think that firms like DBC/eSignal and perhaps PCQuote ,
Dynastore/Quote.com would find the existing 2000i user base as large enough
target market to continue to support us.
Best regards,
Michael
