Re: This is pure garbage.

You're right about that. This is the first I've ever heard about a "pre-screening". The IPO guy I talked to didn't mention screening at all, rather that they made a best-effort to call as many people to affirm as possible. If I don't get any LNUX, I'll call my team later today or tomorrow to loudly complain about the process.

Gordon, What difference does it make if they didn't call us. They know who will be first to get shares and just started down list. Once they got to magic number allocating all shares they stopped. None of us who weren't called would have not gotten issue either way. Good luck to all on next offering.
