The person called himself Chris Alexander. I have searched for his posts but only found references to him as some kind of shady character. Does anyone know the story on this dude? Here is my responce and posts mentioning Chris Alexander.

My response:
I guess you have been watching AMTX so close that you have not been keeping tabs on AWRE stock movement the last week. Those alliances impressed the street for oh, about 3 days! How much profit have they produced for AWRE to date. At least AMTX has the ANSI standard which evidently AWRE will try and bypass somehow I guess ??? If you think the company is so bad, short it!! We will buy the shares you borrow!

Some of us owned CAWS last year (during the mega-hype period)in the earlier days of SI and Chris Alexander and Billy Dunn (or whoever they really were....). Even Techie might remember this stock...

There's now a class action suit against the company. I have a copy of the suit, it's very interesting. The stock plummeted from 12 or higher to under 1. This stock has tripled in 2 days. From 1 to 1.5 on Friday and then today.

Go figure...

Steve, very interesting article. I belive the author is the same woman who wrote an article a while back, mentioning Techie. Techie was convinced that Chris Alexander provided the information trying to compromise her professional carrier. It was the reason for her subsequent disappearance form SI (besides flames). Now Pat made it to WSJ. Pat, I hope you don't disappear underground, like Techie...

The article is significant since it is the first time I see Amati mentioned in print in the same breath as Iomega and Comparator . If this becomes an offline media mantra, it could be very dangerous for the stock.

PS As you all know I am long on Amati.
