Variations on a theme in C minor...
First, thank you to those who replied to some of my points. I still regret that none of you replied to all of my points.
Skip, I like to play with words as much as you do, but, in that case, you did not bring much to the quality of our discussion.
If repeating an insult is your best argument, please be aware that you will not convince anyone of your superiority.
Brief, the points I made are stated in the following posts:
- Message 9691646 - Message 9691792 - Message 9699851 - Message 9699891
I feel the need to mention these posts because some tortuous minds I have confronted in the past think the "truth" vanishes as the posts that expose it further decline in the list of recent posts.
Now, a few answers to a few words...
Mike,
| No, logic is knowing that even incredibly intelligent people | sometimes say something stupid.
Very well put. You are right. I was wrong. Yet, I posted a question, not an affirmation. Thank you for answering the question.
art,
| Well I just proved you have said something that wasn't true.
This may happen. I'm not stupid enough to pretend it may not happen. However, what I post is true to the best of my knowledge.
jmanvegas,
Nice to read your comments. You make sense. I also think ACTV has the best opportunity, but it does not mean anything. For a long time, Microsoft did not have the best technology, but they captured their market anyway. In Internet time, you may be the best suited entity one day, and totally outdated 2 weeks later. However, I appreciate that you do not take hype for gold.
| If the patents are good enough for you to buy IATV at $12, are you | saying that the patents aren't good enough to buy IATV at $15-$16.
Well, my belief is that ACTV's patents are worth $12 a share and not more than that. ACTV without its patents is worth nothing. [Warning: Obviously, this is only my opinion, based on the fact that a small group of developers, collocated in a building and depending on a technology (the Java TV API) that is very immature, can easily be replaced.]
This being said, if I think I may buy at $12 a share, why would I waste my money buying at $16 a share?
Mike Fredericks,
Excellent post...at least you tried to address some of my points.
For your reading convenience, this post won't be in a fixed font. :-)
As far as AT&T's little game goes, please "do your own research," since whatever I will post will be subject to the doubtful attitude of a number of people. So, please use a news service that allows you to search press releases by ticker or in full text, and check by yourself.
It's dangerous to only read what comes your way.
Finally, thank you to all of you, for spending some time "really" discussing the potential and future of ACTV. It is a clear change compared to the constant promoting techniques some of you practice so well.
