Sector, your contributions to this thread and the time you devote to the subject are greatly appreciated. It is truly refreshing to have substantive and informed comments which are helpful in making investment decisions, instead of the mindless bickering which so often goes on on these threads. I was an original investor in Xyplex and came back to it when MRVC skidded to $6/share. Have made lots of money since and hope to make more. One concern is your comment (from the AM ) that the IPO of OA is still a ways off (March at the ealiest now?)
