If the new company (Corl + Borland) was an IPO today, how much do you think WS would pay for it? The new formed company owns:
1. A Linux OS.
2. WP which is the standard word processor among lawyers and segments of the US and Canadian government. Total customers around 50 million. WP is available for Windows, Linux and Apple OS.
3. The best development tools in the business (Delphi + C++ Builder, JBuilder, Visigenic, ASP, etc.) available for Windows, Solaris, and soon Linux.
4. Some of the best application software in the industry.
5. A scalable database used by the likes of Ericsson.

I would guess WS would easily have paid over $200/share. However, nobody trusts Cowpland and that is the big problem.
