Bonzo I can't comment on those things you mentioned because I don't know anything about them. Since creditors are getting only 4c in the dollar right now, that doesn't leave a lot of room for shareholders to get much, even if there is some case for them to get anything at all.

If Global Crossing is anything like Globalstar, which I know a lot more about, it will have been an appalling chain of bad management and marketing leading to a dead end when it need not have been the case at all.

I suspect it could have been a great business but they tried to gold plate each megabyte and sell it at a premium. When there are petabytes to sell and cyberspace to fill, there's no point in trying to hang onto 1990 fibre data transfer prices. Stack it high and sell it cheaply.
