Good point Kevin. You know, they're not bad people or dumb people they're just typical people who buy a stock and end up losing a lump of cash because they don't understand the market or the company. When they buy those shares, anybody with anything negative to say becomes the target of bitter school yard attacks.
Face it, Corel hasn't changed. They have that '80s graphics package and that office suite they bought from Novell which has little or no following anymore. Microsoft gets half its revenues from Office, look at Corel: Microsoft's lunch bill for campus meetings is probably higher. The old Steerburger next door to the Microsoft Campus in Redmond (been there, ate that) probably does more busines in burgers than Corel does world-wide with Office suites. Cowpland keeps babbling away about new revenue streams but invariably his plans end up on the trash heap -- Java, Net PC and much, much more.
These people don't want to hear that. They live in a dream world where negative comments have no value. In fact, they are the only credible comments I have ever seen here! Does anybody really think these guys critic-bashing tactics are of any investment value? Look, they're doing what comes naturally and lashing out at what they perceive as the enemy, until they sell. Then they're all open minded as can be, right after the sell confirmation comes back. It really is hilarious to watch. |
