Captain Jack, the first step in investing is deciding if theÿ CEO or COO are up to the job. After that trying to 2nd guess ÿhim is a losing propostion if you ae dealing with a strong ÿleader. We have all known for years that NN had a " leadership problem ",ÿ not " a people or technology problem " as Pearse so aptly put it. Pearse has picked on that immediately and spelled it out. You know he knows what he is doing. Previously " seasoned professionals " ( Lutz ) were pickedÿ for NN. That got us no where. T.Matthews to his credit I think now has picked the right guy: He executed on NN products around the world.ÿ He will do the same in N.America. I doubt that selling to Carriers will need all that sales force.ÿ You need a few guys who know the product well and a strongÿÿ product that will sell itself. NN has always been No 1 in ATMs and the recent increase by LU was only because NN did not address NSPs.ÿ That has changed. Think ORCL at 20 and then ORCL at 95, TA
