Not a clue! But, companies have been postponing purchase of application development software to concentrate on Y2K. That effort should now be behind us. INPR should share in some of that new FY money. The company is about to offer some exciting software for LINUX which seems to be the wave of the future. If they can get it out the door in a timely manner then I think the profit and sales picture will improve. INPR has a good reputation in Europe and Europe is getting stronger vis-a-vis USA. The new manager should clean out any dead-wood and set the company on a focused and profitable path. The one obstacle that has continued to create problems is that so many MIS managers will not purchase the software due to the low price of the stock. If somehow they could merge with another company where the combined stock price exceeded $10.00 then I think sales would improve dramatically.
