Teflon: Of course your article interests me. Thanks. What will be fun to watch is if there is anyone else here interested. Perhaps the Microsoft connection will lead a few to read it at least. Very pleased to have the opportunity that SFE gives me to participate in the IPO and will do so. Good news that again SFE and its most key new IPO will have such a person to add to its already strong group of experienced and savy people. If ever there was a multi trick pony it is SFE. By the way, the whole concept that SFE has of using its group of people to reinforce and help each other across the many companies associated with SFE is a unique source of strength. In my experience, I have not found another which makes that a major policy and practice. Like an extended family. As you know, the reason I call SFE my One Significant Other in my gorilla game of "one gorilla, one king, ..." is that it is different. Not a gorilla nor a king but a fascinating hybrid that seems to be a relatively conservative way to participate in the internuts - particularly like its business to business focus - which is where most of internut future explosive growth is expected to be. Cha2.

It's nice to see you posting again, Teflon. I've been looking forward to your take on Mr. Softee. Do you think the market will let msft sink back into the 80s after such a magnificent report? Surely they won't let the expected forward looking warning scare them off, will they? Frank

OT - I know that there have been a couple of discussions on this thread of Internet Capital Group (ICG) because of its connection to SFE. If anybody has become interested in the company, and has an E-Trade account, they can apply for shares with this link. trading.etrade.com You'll need to fill out a customer profile, and there is no guarantee that you'll get shares. They allocate the shares through a lottery system, and the most you are will get is 100 shares....but with the current crazy IPO market it might be worth a shot. Sorry for the off-topic post.....Good luck if you try for it. Slacker
