Do you think we'll get 'spanked' for having good numbers? :-) GTW got a nice life off for beating by a penny. But just about everyone else has been hammered. Maybe the 'PROS' are not planning on selling into the strength of the buying public on MRVC, because the buying public doesn't know anything about our little gem. Jack

EBAY was up 6 in after hours trading, but MRVC was not traded in afterhours. MRVC last trade at 16:03 - 14 1/4. What do we have to do to make MRVC a household name? Any chance of getting some of those optics into a lifetime light bulb, with the output lumens of a 200 watt incandescent bulb, but only 25 watts of power consumption? The MRVC Bulb... Speaking of bulbs, check out these tulips... techstocks.com

Sector-Very positive cc. Did you get the impression that Edmund had been coached to tone down Noam's exuberance on the IPO and the upcoming financing of the affiliates? The Optical Access IPO in a strong market (becoming more iffy) should price at an overall cap of 600-700m. Whether it happens or not, the very strong possibility,should be reflected soon in the share price of MRV with an appropriate discount. We have probably seen our last opportunity to accumulate below 15. Bruce-Edmund is obviously in your camp vis-a-vis the prospects of HyperChannel. Perhaps I should up my targets accordingly. In summary,return to profitability ,award winning products,new and improved manufacturing facilities,improving margins,scheluled beta testing of many new products in high-growth areas,hot new IPO(s?),new affiliate,secret relationships,ramping up R& D and SG&A,FibreMountain will be much taller than CopperMountain,new product announcement coming in Sept. What is not to like? Best regards, Mike
