Kiriakos, I was tempted to congratulate you for an insightful post a day or so back, but didn't because I could add nothing to the Corel-Inprise discussion. Now, I see you have been attacked by McPherson, who apparently delights in character assassination, so I want you to know that at least one of us does not share his feeling. Thank you for your comments. Since I am writing, I will add these snippets: 1) I am long on both sides of this transaction, although I sold off 2/3rds of my holdings in both companies after peeking in on the Linux Show in New York last week. 2) I am ambivalent about the merger, and won't come down squarely on either side until I have more information. 3) I think the fact that both firms have a strong international presence is an important feature of the combined companies. 4) I think that the outcome of the MS antitrust case will have a positive effect on BorEl. 5) I am very concerned about Senor Cowpland getting access to the cash in Inprise's account. 6) I think Inprise's cash should be distributed to INPR's shareholders, before the merger.
