Hi Victor,

I used QP2 for a couple years till mid 2000. I found the charting was very
nice in that it worked offline which made it faster than any online service
available ( I still use dial-up at home). I found their support was good
also. Back then, I wasn't very good at setting up the screening tools for
canslim. I think I stand a better chance now of setting it up a bit better.

As the market picks up, I will probably re-subscribe to the service.
