Whether Corel's price keeps tanking or goes back to the high teens, why would it affect how Inprise shareholders would vote on the deal? It seems obvious to me that if CORL were in the 30s, INPR shareholders would be happy campers & would vote for the deal. OTOH, since the falloff in CORL shares has clearly driven down the price of INPR, the shareholders are unhappy, so they'll vote no. If Corel's price shoots up to $30 ... how many days would it be before we would be able to sell our "new Corel" shares" You should be able to sell your CORL shares the next day if you choose to do so. It does not take into account what will happen to Inprise being a source of quality tools in the future. While it DOES matter to me (I use INPR tools), it doesn't matter in the least to the markets at large.
