perhaps that is why i like your ODP. Much better buy than SPLS. I truly believe that the techincal and accounting personnel are far superior to the Staples hype. Listen, when the merger was to start, they were going to use Office Depot's accounting system. Staples grew due to agreement that ODP would not open new stores while the merger was being completed. SPLS was continuing grow. SEC blew the deal and left ODP to suffer. ODP overall, and in the end may not beat SPLS, but is no second tier either. PPRO investments and others that they will not disclose since they internet has not utilized their capabilities. Yes B2B is old now, but PPRO was the only one in its catagory in the beginning. Do not underestimate Office Depot. With over 10 billion in revenue each year, this company is investing in the right companies for their trade. Tech wise. AMZN should buy them:
