Since there seems to be no discussion on this subject, I'm creating one by asking some questions! Network Computer Inc, in renaming itself to Liberate, has switched its focus from replacing PC's with NC's, to software for the set-top box.
Some background information...
The home-page: liberate.com (not too much details here, nothing for investors apparenly).
The name change: zdnet.com.
The sceptics: thestandard.net
The IPO: news.com
The NCI->Liberate IPO seems to be underwritten by the usual suspects:
The IPO is being underwritten by Credit Suisse First Boston, Hambrecht & Quist, and Charles Schwab & Company. Liberate Technologies will trade under the symbol "LBRT."
The Questions:
Is this going to be a block-buster, or a dud? If the former, how does a small investor get into this IPO? I've looked for online IPO information, but drawn a blank. |
