Steve, your skepticism combined with postings on Pinks thread, speak volumes. You are an intelligent guy. I'm sure you know full well that major partners who have a significant amount to contribute to the future of a new IPO, routinely get bargain basement prices on their inititial investments. That is because what they bring to the table is worth much more than any increase in their initial investment would be. Your suggestion that we may somehow need them or they would be willing to sell their name to a company they hadn't thoroughly checked out is ridiculous. Can you name me one time AOL, Softbank or GE invested in a company that was not succesgful after the IPO? You post with good facts most of the time However, your opinions have always been decidedly slanted to the negative.
