Tom,

I am with u on this one, I don,t think this GraphOn (who is familiar with this Company/product?) announcement is going to amount to much. And if market reaction was to this event I don't think most people took the time to become familiar with the details of the announcement as well. I think they heard "GraphOn Bridges to Enable Corel LINUX OS to Instantly Access and Run Windows Applications" and jumped.

But it probably is an indicator of the desire to have WinX apps available on Linux, and Corel will have more relevant announcements to shout about in this area in the near future.

...and u were in the ranks of "dirty Corel basher" long before this post so no worries, lol...

Tom: The Graphon announcement ain't no joke. My conclusion after thinking it through is that this initiative, which will allow access to complete windows apps through any Linux desktop via corporate intranets or the internet is "huge."

Why? It will allow companies the means to migrate from win to linux, period. The cost savings and stability of linux becomes much, much more irresistable to corporate America, as winbridge makes it easy to implement linux enterprise wide.

This announcement will cause "Big Money" to evaluate CORL with far more confidence. Over the next several weeks we will see large blocks of shares bought and held.

My price target in November was $35 by 12/20. Corl broke through that and has now receded to bargain basement prices. After thinking through the implications of this latest announcement, my personal price target is $100 by March 15th. I'm liquidating elsewhere and adding to my position on CORL.

Smiling too,

Scott :)
