Anyone out there agree with me that the merger is a lousy deal for SPCO shareholders who will end up with 1/4 of their original SPCO stock for the newly combined SPCO/Allegro entity?

Is this (merger) the best that SPCO can do in the face of declining revenues, continuing losses?

I've held onto SPCO stock rather than taking a loss. Does anyone out there think that this new entity will be successful?

I suppose the time has come for Fred Gibbons to wake up and smell the bitter coffee and realize that the goliaths of the OfficeSuite wars have truly made mince meat out of SPC's products just like the demonstration he put on illustrating how SPC was going to crush the competition by having a giant truck roll over and crush some old cars that represented Microsoft and Lotus during an annual sales meeting/party when Harvard Graphics was riding high--any former SPC'ers remember that one ? Oh well...if only certain VP's of Sales and other key players had been more concerned with getting a beta version of HG 3.0 DOS and Windows versions into existing corporate accounts instead of focusing on those damned Diamond Rolex and skirts(!) perhaps things would be different today. I was only a part-time dealer rep so I can't take too much blame personally here except I tried like hell to graduate into the ranks of full-time corporate sales but that's the way the hard drive crashes.
