DAVE GORE: <TPII> UPDATE: had long conversation with thier great PR firm. Conclusion? <TPII>....great feeling here; ....HAMBRECHT AND QUIST quietly buying... AND deal with Bemer still solid...AND PR Firm guy, Jim Janis, very sharp, and was involved in taking other Y2K companies way up in price.... i.e IAIC from 15 cents to $10 currently; and he likes TPII maybe better at this early stage, since they are in other areas like Sales Force Automation, not just Imbedded Systems (i.e extra revenue streams). <TPII> he says has great software.
Strong feeling is the deal with "Father of Cobol", MR. BEMER and BMR Associates, for AUTO-detection AND repair of Y2K problems on UNIX MAINFRAME machines, now ready to proceed. Many were concerned why the letter on intent was never followed up on by TPII after it was signed with Bemer last fall.
When TPII signed the letter of intent last fall, the software was only 85% done...now it is done and in the lawyers hands. For TPII, this is a huge "silver bullet"....
AUTO FIX OF UNIX BASED MAINFRAMES...are you kiddin' me? HUGE, if it happens!
PLUS more announcements coming!!!
ROAD SHOW starting next week.
PR firm sharp! JIM JANIS is expert in Y2K companies.....took some Y2K companies way up in price from ultra low levels (CSGI, IAIC, etc.)
************ CALL HIM: 312-943-1100 *************
I asked hard questions about delays, etc. and liked the answers....management is articulate, smart, all former banking execs, who look presentable and know their stuff. Jim said that this makes it a lot easier to market this company....looks good to me.
We just need a little buying to get us onver the hump, IMO |
