Don't count on a buyout to save this company! Apple just announced that in the first 12 hours of selling apples on line they sold $500,000 worth. What's the significance for GTW? Well it means that a branded manufacturer doesn't need to buy GTW in order to go into direct sales. So the only potential buyer would be one that did not already have a brand name in computer sales. That leaves out all the major players. Moreover, no supplier of components would be interested since they would be competing against their own customers. Who does that leave? Hey, maybe WorldCom would like to add them to their list. Who knows? Now that they have all their infrastructure in place maybe they will want to purchase telephone users as well.
