Since I'm kind of venting tonight, I'll tell you what I think is hurting INPR. INPR is plagued by having too much revenue. I mean, $45M a quarter is a terrible thing to live down for a company with a $900 million cap (maybe 750 to 800 million by tomorrow morning by the looks of things).

If INPR had nearly no revenue by comparison, say like RHAT's $16 to $18 million they may realize this coming YEAR, but had the POTENTIAL of growing to $45 million a quarter instead, then INPR would command a $15 billion dollar cap as well.

I say we should tell CEO Dale Fuller to trim those pesky revenues back to a near zero level for a quarter or two, then let them ramp up at about a 200% per quarter growth rate, and in no time we'd all be sitting on a 200 or 300 dollar per share company.
