Hi, Rose! Well, sure. The thing is, I think it's as risky as ... ... when it was when I should have shorted it (instead of buying more) @ $90-100 range. The fundamentals still 'rest' on this company's ability or lack thereof to its defend intellectual property 'rights.' That's all they got. And it looks to me like they're going to lose ... if not in court, they're missing the competitive technology 'leapfrog' potential effect. RMBS' participation in the industry-standards organization, JEDEC, appears to me to be very critically significant. My work over the years has involved some 'coverage' (writing about tech standards committees on behalf of my clients in newsletters, trade mag articles, etc) of participation in electronics standards committees including the IEEE. And at one point, U/L (Underwriters Laboratory -- electrical stds). Looks to me as if RMBS participated in the JEDEC forum and possibly could have withheld -- or lied, for that matter -- to/within the JEDEC conformance-developing-standards organization. This is strictly my laymen's view, but I think there is something to that specific piece of the puzzle of this litigation, etc. I am not an attorney, by any means, as you know. Again, Rose, I may be dead wrong, but I don't want anything to do with RMBS with my own money. This is just my opinion. 'b-i-a' ###
