thanks Kerry I'll try to access the article tomorrow,

The $21 3/4 valuation of MTI for Caldera Systems seems low,
since there is a 42% discount factored in,
possibly for Caldera value verses Red Hat value?? or just a discounted value for holdings???

$21 3/4 doesn't consider Red Hat value has risen 300% from $90 to $270 since the article was published in 8/99.


MTI with 30.6 million O/S x $21.75 = $ 665 million
RHAT with 68.8 million O/S X $90 X 25% = $ 1.555 billion
$665 m / $1.55 b = 42% discount

if we knew the future value of Caldera relative to the 8/99 value of Red Hat,

investing would be so simple.
