Hmmm well I sense the investment pros think Melissa is ok, and since I don't follow her every call I will retract my slam! (now theres something you won't get often from me..lol)

The truth is, my judgement comes almost entirely from my exposure to her early in her career. Her father was Al Eisenstadt, the first CFO at Apple (I think) and she was offered a job working directly for a VP at Apple immediately out of college (she had a degree in foreign relations or something, not a Stanford MBA as would have been the requirement without "connections"). Anyway that really isn't too big of a deal but Apple failed so miserably in software - they missed client server totally - I have a hard time believing someone from there is qualified to be a software analyst... go figure.
