It's reading accounts like Lexar's CEO that makes me glad that Sandisk Management seems to have a cork shoved down their throat. This guy could be keeping Lexar's Lawyers very busy for a long time.

I wonder what kind of advice this guy has been giving at LEXR: Eric Whitaker, General Counsel & Secretary -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As General Counsel, Mr. Whitaker oversees Lexar¹s legal affairs.

He also served as a Legislative Assistant for US Senator Warren Rudman, where he was the primary contact on all legal and tax issues. Mr. Whitaker graduated cum laude from Princeton University with an A.B. in Politics and earned a J.D. from the Stanford School of Law, Stanford University. lexarmedia.com The most not liked the advice this next guy gave. He has been moved over to print rooom. Carlton Osborne, Vice President & General Manager, PrintRoom.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As Vice President and General Manager of Lexar¹s wholly-owned subsidiary, PrintRoom.com, Mr. Osborne oversees business strategies and development for this online photo-finishing venture.

Aus, <<NOW I CAN BELIEVE THE COURT TESTIMONY THAT STATES THAT THIS GUY ADMITTED LEXAR MEDIA USING SANDISK TECHNOLOGY DURING THE LICENSING TALKS.>> Me too. His comments were remarkable. It is just as remarkable to me that their stock went up today, and that Sandisk's stock didn't go to the moon. After all, if Lexar can "become a multibillion dollar company in the not too distant future", what can Sandisk become? The ways of Mr. Market are ass-tonishing sometimes. Glad your boy is well and at home. Best wishes, Sam P.S. On a down note, there is a "super-typhoon" heading toward Taiwan as I write. I think landfall is due sometime today. Don't know which part will bear the brunt of it. Let's hope it is a not very populated part of the country.
