...that Cowpland is a con -artist --- Did you find out he wasn't a real doctor? --- I've been in CORL since the fall of '98. In that time, I've not felt that Michael Cowpland was anything but an entrepreneur and an optimist. He strikes me as a smart guy who sincerely wants his business model succeed, long term and someone who is really making an attempt to rehabilitate his image within the investment community. --- People who accuse this fellow of "pump and dump" must be the type of investors who buy an equity when it's got the buzz and then sell it when it dips. My guess would be that Corel isn't the first equity these people have had this experience with and it won't be the last. Anyone who sold Corel at a loss wasn't burned by Cowpland. They were burned by the transaction they alone initiated. Here's a suggestion; buy low, sell high. -JCJ

if someone bought the stock for over 40 after this past U.S. Thanksgiving and held it til now, he would have a paper loss of over 80% in less than half a year.
I got out at 10 with a profit and missed the upside and the ride back down.
