I find the possibility that ASND mgt. was not culpable somewhat frightening because it implies to me that they are quite incompetent at running a high tehnology business. George, Let's preface this with the brief being anti management. The high tech business has a lot of variables. Time to market is very important. Management could have been criticized had they held up a product that did work properly. It is kind of a "crap shoot". I recall the USRX I was a shareholder) rollout of the x2 modem. Shipment was delayed and management was heavily criticized for the delay. Their response was they would only ship a reliable product. On the other hand, ROK shipped chips that clearly did not work in their rush to market. They were criticized too. Which management was better? Glenn
