I didn't address my remarks to you. I simply used your post because it was convenient. I don't recall that you have previously posted here.

The stock price represents what is actually going on. Not much. The company does not have the growth prospects for it to merit price advance and will not get those prospects until it changes into a whole new beast. An object oriented storage company isn't going to make enough difference. As that article indicated an XML server with object db support is interesting, but don't kid yourself into believing that will pull the company out of the doldrums.

Did you notice how the stock ran up to 10? That was caused by Goldman firing himself. That tells you a lot about the Harvard educated principals running this company. As the thread has known for years it is necessary for the company to become something larger in concept, but that won't happen with risk averse comfort managers. This thread also has gone out of its way to applaud management. That's tantamount to emperor's new clothes behavior and tells you all about public delusion.

What to do now? Since apparently you have a long term capital situation, you might as well hold. It's dead money, but you and others can bring it alive by complaining. You send letters to the company President. You start ranting and raving on this thread. You tear them apart. No mercy. They don't deserve any even though they are dealing with an almost intractable problem. It is time they start earning their Harvard hubris by overcoming all obstacles. You will accept no more excuses and you will make your voices known as a group to management.
