Acrobat doesn't put me off. A lot of MCRE's main customer base are Mac-based graphic artists, and Acrobat is pretty universal across platforms.

The profile isn't quite right for selling the company, either, IMO. This 3-D product suite is the culmination of 1 - 1 1/2 years effort, and required a huge amount of coordination and negotiation of different vendors. To complete the strategy, then sell it out, seems anticlimactic at best. Of course, with the rapid consolidation of I-net assets, all bets are off.

Can't dispute that they're trying to keep the stock off everyone's radar. When an obligatory press piece is released, the volume rises and it goes off on day traders' radar. The next day its back to the calms. You're right, not much incentive for the shorts, either.
