TradeStation 2000i Service Pack 3 I've read about the past problems users have had in the first release (March 99). markbrown.com Since then, the Service Pack 2 in on its third version which has removed many, if not all of the bugs. Tech support said that problem calls have dramatically decreased since the third version. They are preparing for Service Pack 3 which will have added features including some of the features that had been removed in the upgrade from TS 4.0. Anyone using the most current service pack release care to share your opinion? Opinions on RadarScreen and OptionStation would be appreciated. omegaresearch.com bo

It's amazing how good the earnings are looking so far. I'm watching one stock after another beat estimates and the market sells off for the day. It will be interesting to see how things go for the next several days, but make no mistake, many companies are doing very well and will offer excellent value for those that buy them during the sell-offs. Two good examples for the day were XIRC and ZOMX. One did very well and the other backed off even after a 2-1 split announcement!
