>> The server that QP uses I ma sure has all the data, but nobody in
sound mund would download all of them; first it will be forever,
second probably there is a limit on number of tickers that you can
download for free

Both wrong. The download takes under a minute, normally.
You don't have a choice about what you download; you always
get it all. Updating the database takes another 3-5 minutes
(on Pentium class machines). That updates all the stocks.

Name changes and splits are updated in the process.

There are approximately (I'm not looking) 12,000 symbols
involved.

I don't know where 80,000 comes from--there are no BB or
option symbols.

Check it out. You get 30 days free. Don't take my word
for it.
