Starowl, we go a lot further back then June..this includes multiple identities that were used on other threads..but you are right, everyone makes their own bed...I'm glad I could read through the lines and recognize Ken as a class act... I was simply referring to the posting of misinformation...it can manipulate people's minds.. Good luck.

Starowl, in technology investing the very toughest thing to find is someone who really knows the technology. More often than not the average investor's decision is built on a foundation of quicksand. Therefore, for someone who realizes this, one person who appears to have real technology expertise can have a disproportionate impact. Furthermore, if you are looking for guidance on the technology position, contrary "cheerleading" by any number of people who obviously do not have it does not carry much weight with me. Unfortunately, I paid some attention to Mr. Rent, with whom I also had private discussions. I also paid some attention to Shelton James who sold the position he managed at around $5, and to GOODBOY who sold some of his at $7 or so, and to Astoria who sold theirs at $10 or less. Luckily, on this one anyway, I am by nature a slow seller so I still have a lot left, as I have posted.

Well I didn't give up on it and you didn't give up on it--what makes us different from your friends? And there have been many opportunities to get back into the stock; I have continued adding to my holdings as it has climbed. There is nothing to be gained by blaming others for our own mistakes; I make enough of them myself. I find it difficult to understand how one's investment decisions on Concurrent could be influenced by one poster whose views were not always in synch with the vast majority of posters on this board who generally praised the prospects for Concurrent. It would seem to me that the opposite would be true. ********************************************* I agree with your points, particularly your statement about blame. I forget who said it, but I agree with the following statement entirely: "Blame is for children and God."
