Changing the stock symbol the morning after the earnings release conference call is right up there as one of the stupidest thinks Corel has done (and they have done many stupid things). They screw the analysts first and now the individual investors that use the various stock chat forums. SI is one of the only ones that has it straight this am. Individual investors use these forums to give each other that warm fuzzy feeling and figure out what to do with the stock. If they have to rely on the media and analysts to get the information the stock will surely go down. Just another example of naive management. They go out of their way to make life as difficult for Corel shareholders as possible. Why talk down expectations when you are going to blow away the original numbers. Stupid, I think so... All just my opinion, but it seems to be supported by the low stock price. frank
