Mary and Janice, I agree fundamentally with both of you. First, there are I feel, some distinct conspiratorial evidences concerning this company. WS has not taken kindly to legitimizing it. The company's too aberrant for them I think, it's an anomaly. WS still looks at old standards i. e., PE, and growth patterns as the traditionalist they are and therefore will not ignore. Taking that into consideration, Mary, some of KE's decisions that may not have synched with your opinions could have been based on misinformation, or his attempts to appease too many people too quickly. Did any of the old timers balk at accepting those splits? Are any of those people still here? Why? Obviously more than just greed.
Give the man a break...already squashing him for 3d quarter expectations is tantamount to saying he's can't recover. And maybe WS might be more accepting of a humbled man, than a disappointed investor.
So Mary, stop and think as Winner has stated...is this a company you believe in? Do you think the product has merit and will become the standard? Who got the company there, and do you think this same person has the vision to get you beyond Hollywood blooper? If you believed in INTC when it was created data based marketing, give the man some credit. Maybe IOMEGA needs to just market a bit more...like a Rolling Stone. But with their budgetary constraints, they do what they can.
Just my nickel. Now ladies...watch your laundry.
Regards and respect,
