< What is your point?
Since everyone is confused, I must not have been clear. I didn't intend to bring it up again, but since Hank asked, here is a snip of Hank's original post, with me trying to clear up my point:

< It's a very novel piece of machinery that should gain market share <easily.
Why? Just because you said so? Consumers do not always buy something just because the manufacturer wishes it to be so. Sometimes, even the 'better mousetraps' fail, for complex reasons.
< Now it trades at around $6. Do you know why? Because during the <last quarter, Coulter failed to sell even one machine for IMII and IMII <has stated that they may fail to sell any this quarter either. I'm very <familiar with the technolgy involved in IMII's machine, so I do not <believe this is due to a fault with the equipment.
This is the nub of my original post: What the Heck are YOU talking about here? Do you know of some malfeasance? What is the reason that they failed to sell "even one" of these fine machines? Do you know? Or are you just looking for a boogie-man? What is it that you "believe" it to be the fault of?
As to your being a MLT - wonderful. That, however, does not leave you uniquely qualified to understand complex international marketing and financing of hi-tech equipment. No one challenged you as to why you originally posted this on PRLN thread. Fine. But if the original topic was content, then so is the response.
Whew. I'm done.
Reader's digest (r) version, for the mentally impaired or those who didn't want to read all of the above:
Q: "What was my point"
A: "Assigning forces outside of the product itself to be the cause of poor performance should not go unchallenged; and that if specifics are available, they ought to be given."
