Check out these numbers. INPR/CORL & RHAT. Somebody play
"stump the dummie." How can the market place nearly 12
Billion in market cap in a company whose revenues and
earnings are several years down the road, if at all?

When you examine the numbers, the combined CORL/INPR does
become a "powerhouse" in both Windows and Linux. If indeed
$30 Million is cut from operating expenes, ceteris paribus,
EPS of the combined company jumps to .59 and the PE falls
to 49. $215 Million in cash in indeed "power."
"TheStreet.com," where are you?

Kari, Thank You...

I genuinely appreciate your input. Based on the things I've read about him, I'm inclined to think that, up close and personal, Mr. Cowpland is a very personable and convincing fellow. But he doesn't seem to project the kind of good judgment and integrity that encourages investors to bet large sums of money on him.

All this discussion, though, will soon become moot. In a month or so we will start to see bottom line evidence of the wisdom of the course Corel and Imprise are taking. In the meantime, I've brought my commitment down to the point where I can participate modestly in the upside (if any) without jeopardizing my financial welfare.

Again, Kari, I appreciate your comments. It is nice to hear something positive about Mr. Cowpland. Like you, "I still hold out hope for Corel and Inprise." That, and a somewhat limited knowledge of the software industry are what convinced me that I shouldn't unload everything.

Fred
