Hi Ramsey, >>WIND is at a stage where they must expand huge amounts into the next generation products while receiving no revenue in the mean time.

The issue is why don't the old generation products fund the next generation products. If they don't you are in a going out of business curve. My good old examples like Microsoft, Oracle, Peoplesoft, Adobe, etc. (the list goes on); the first generation products funded the next generation products, which inturn funded the next generation products.

Now, I have invested in a few software companies that were not able to fund the next generation products and these were not my best investments, in fact I lost money. A couple of years ago Softquad was my last such experience.<ggg>

I would like to understand this better because my guts tell me there is money to be made in RTOS systems in the future. My question who is going to make the killing because I would like to own the company.

Joan
