Reality to esecurities.. Come in... Funny that you have to ignore reality in order to continue hyping this stock. Let's see >untried management team>Senior DIMD and INTC execs Hmm, have you ever bothered to check DIMD's stock price from the time Hausmann and team slashed costs to pump up the stock (after an options repricing) and what it is currently trading at? (16 to 5-6) >thin balance sheets>wrong ref/ as empirically corrborated on this thread, SEC Filings. Pardon me, but I must have missed your in depth analysis of the SEC filings. Please, since we are all in awe of your complete honesty, point out where this was "empirically corrborated(?)". The SEC filings show a thin balance sheet by any definition. That could be why they had to set up another toxic convertible. >toxic convertible financing>wrong, as empirically corroborated on this thread, SEC Filings. Lie. I suggest you explain that to the thread on SI that tracks toxic convertibles. >whiffy promotion>WON.net (Havas/Sierra), EarthLink (NASDAQ:ELNK), CHUMBO.com, Intel®, ZDNets Computer Gaming World. End result of these "promotions"? Sierra\Dynamix picks Roger Wilco for a few of it's games proclaiming it's superiority. Chumbo doesn't seem to generate any sales of signficance. Intel, pretty much does nothing in promotion (another esecurities lie) Earthlink + Won = no users. Computer Gaming World : see following post. Conclusion: Whiffy or not, all promotion resulted in a market failure. >hokey products> thrustmaster.com wecantalk.com ; NASCAR® franchise, pending release of Reflex controllers with reportedly built-in superior contribution margins... Hausmann himself said the hardware has no future. wecantalk.com = medicore to poor reviews and no users. Next product competes directly with well established products (NVO, Laplink, Internet Phone 5.0, MSNetmeeting, CUCEEME, etc.) that do more (video phone, etc.) and several are free. >?...we would like to see Cannell Capital Management go public so we would be in a position to short Cannell Capital Management... Unfortunately for you reality crowds out your bluster. I actually checked out all his recommendations when Pete Mason posted that article, looking for some other investment ideas - for all but Thrustmaster it is too late - Youbet, pink monkey, millionare.com, etc. all are now trading at, or close to, their 6 months lows. The charts look nasty on all of them - one is trading around 2 from a high of 27. Another looks like it had a 50% drop between the close of one day and the open of another. Don't know what happened there... I have no clue what this guys long recomendations were, but he looks to be making a killing. TMSR is the only bubble that didn't pop for him yet. Yet... Face it, if all you have left is Sex, Lies and Banner ads to point to, you have a serious problem. And you don't even have the sex. :-) I am sure that there were plenty of investors that held onto the above stocks "just because is it high" and learned the hard way. The question is do you feel lucky, punk?
