Well, first of all, you have the split reversed. It was more like a 56/44 split with VISX receiving approximately $140.00 per procedure and BEAM receiving $110.00 per.

Secondly, because of all the hassle BEAM received for opening a LVC center which in theory, competed directly with the persons they were selling/leasing machines too, any business plan they might of envisioned became mute.

Third: For doing such a lousy job, BEAM was smart enough to keep approximately 8 million shares of LCAV for itself and give 9 million to its shareholders. So my advice to you is to keep buying and pushing it, because you're making BEAM richer as well as myself...Pappy
