Look at the news: Vertical Computer Systems, Inc. Owns 25.2% Stake in French Shopping Portal Provider Externet World Sarl LOS ANGELES, Feb 24, 2000 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Vertical Computer Systems, Inc. (OTC:VCSY) announced today that it now owns 100% of Externet World, Inc., and as a result, owns a 25.2% interest in French shopping portal provider Externet World Sarl, a French Corporation. Externet World Sarl's primary French shopping portal is Chrono-shop.com located at chrono-shop.com and is also available from Shopping Internet.Fr located at shoppinginternet.com. Externet World Sarl currently employees 65 people in France, and had approximately US $2,000,000 in unaudited revenues for the period ending December 31, 1999. Richard Wade, president, stated: "Developing a relationship with an established shopping portal in France is a major accomplishment for Vertical Computer Systems and will aid the Company in bringing its own French portal into the marketplace in the near future. France is currently one of the most difficult regions in the world to establish an Internet presence due to the country's laws and specific selling restrictions. We felt it necessary to enter now before other portals attempt penetration and felt Externet World Sarl was the proper vehicle due to their large Internet staff and established French presence."

Hi Starman, Well I sold out the rest of my position today. Made a good buck on it. A triple. Is 2 a good buy, yes. Will it still go to 6, I think so.;-))) I'm still trying to determine if this is a T/A trader or is this just a gut play. The fundamentals are good as I see it. The T/As are just a tool. It hasn't been determined at this point if it is a T/A play or not. I would guess not. Now even though I sold out doesn't mean that this will not go to 6. I still think this is a 6 banger but do to certain circumstances I had to take the profit that I made. Now that certain obligations have been fulfilled, I will probably look for an opportunity to get back in. Maybe I will get that chance and then maybe not. We will have to wait and see. Now what I will say to you is that this is going to be very volatile so be careful. You need nerves of steel and confidence in the stock and where you think it is going to go. The T/As are marginal. Could go either way. Tomorrows trading should give us an indication as to what we could look for in the next few days. This might take a few hits before it takes back off and moves to the 6 level. When I say 6, it has to close there and not touch it. Catcha on the upside, Ron
