RE: May I suggest you ignore the stock price for the next couple of years.

Sorry, I have been ignoring the price for the last couple of years. I finally made a decent return, but I do not intend to have a repeat performance. Besides, I am very skeptical about the CORL-Linux plan. Two years from now, Corel, if they work real hard, will be able to offer on desktop-Linux what MSFT currently offers on Windows. Given the price and penetration that MSFT has, I don't see that as a compelling migration story. Not to mention that MSFT ain't sitting still.

Linux on the desktop is a loser. Corel is a loser Desktop company. INPR had almost made the break from desktop to server/enterprise. Now they jump in the lap of the worst desktop company in the business. Sorry, but I see no reason to hold this dog for "the next couple of years".
