Vendor Financing: That is a supposed part of PAIR's use for their cash hoard. We were informed of this possibility. <6. Long-Term Investments In July 1999, the Company made a minority investment in @Link Communications, a Wisconsin-based Competitive Local Exchange Carrier (CLEC) which provides xDSL-based data communications networking services for businesses, internet service providers and network integrators. The Company purchased 3,874,416 shares of @Link?s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock for an aggregate of $833,000. pairgain.com

Hey Bill C., great to see your hangin' here. But what do you make of the investment? Is @Link = Avidia buyer loosely? But isn't a sale a sale, the investment could be legit if this is a CLEC set to go public when the market gets hot. At least I bought COVD and NPNT on those grounds, so maybe they can too with their huge populationbase in cheesehead / GreenBay country. Damn, those cows even want the net access up there! Gee I should stop slammin' (i got friends up there or had). But what isyour opinion of PAIR hitting the ADSL big ? I don't think anybody small really gets the pie, but some can play a bit awhile (like WSTL or PAIR). Hope you have been tuned into WSTL, the move gets good. PAIR is about do another jiggle also. i haven't seen anyone comment that PAIR preannounced the earnings date that did NOT include the OOPS we missed! That is a backhanded comment to the possible positive for PAIR. i.e., REJOICE upward ho!! whatever
