Mike; Re: Citrix (CTXS)

I know that CTXS was offered as a possible Gorilla, not sure if it made the grade yet. But it got upgraded from $83 to a price target of $145 they sound like G kinda numbers. Details on CTXS thread. Also thought I'd post this from company. Look at these margins. WOW

Mike,

You are a treasure. You do all the things that I think I should do, but don't. Then you graciously share your hard work with the other contributors and us lurkers. On behalf of the thousands (millions?) of lurkers our there, thank you very much for letting us benefit. I can't think of what I could possibly offer to you in return. If you can let me know.

Thanks so much,
Greg
