andy-

I hated to see you make a mess on your shoes, so yesterday I swallowed hard and bought this d- er gem. Could I have bought your shares?? In case you haven't figured this out yet, the time to buy stocks is when they are "cheap". SSPIF looks "cheap" to me, and I think the prospects for growth are favorable. Of course, pat, nord and most amazingly of all, larry, could all be fools and both the company and stock may flounder.

This all leaves me in quite a quandary: whether to secretly root for Spectrum or Blue Wave. I've owned and traded the latter in the past couple of years (or at least BWSI's public predecessor) to the tune of modest financial success. I preferred it to SSPIF in large part because SSPIF seemed to be more highly touted as well as being more into self-promotion. Not a sophisticated analytical process, but one that has so far yielded the better choice. Well I've got twice as many shares of BWSI as SSPIF- that FOUR TIMES as many $$, if anyone here is counting :>) ), but I hate to lose on any stock, so I guess I gotta hope the industry fares well and that I've selected winners.

P.S to Techies: Over on Yahoo, a fellow BWSI holder recently rather intelligently made the point that SSPIF was competing more with general purpose DSP tools, while BWSI was pursuing more specialized market niches. He obviously believed the latter was a better corporate strategy. That subject might provide a worthy topic of conversation on this thread too.
