> DB 14:55 [IFMX] IMFORMIX SAYS ITS TAKING MORE > 'PRO-ACTIVE OUTREACH' TO BIG INVESTORS. About bloody well time, I say. I wonder if we should've known that their investor outreach was going to be less than proactive for a while: I remember being surprised listening in on an IFMX conference call shortly after Finnochio (sp) took over. A Wall Street analyst used the phrase "dog and pony show" in passing and Finnochio didn't get his meaning, thinking he was referring to a trade show or something. The conversation bogged down over this until the analyst gave up and they moved on. Given that, in this context, "dog and pony show" means "'proactive outreach' to big investors", perhaps we should've known that the past year or so would be a dud. Oh, well. Better late than never. Battle on, Informix ___ DC P.S. Weren't datablades supposed to allow IFMX to do a great job hosting web content? Where are they in this space? Why is Oracle getting all the internet-related press over Oracle 8i, which has only recently come out? I think the PR people need to start poppin' some Proactive Pills over there too.
