I know more about baseball then I do about the law. I am sure you are correct about the Judge having the final say (or is it really the jury if gets that far). But I am not convinced that that this is just “a high-risk, long shot investment” that you have no emotion invested in. >> Lets see on July 18, 2006 you said…”I am still sitting on thousands of shares of SCOX…I'm now averaged down under $3.50/share” Message 22635787 Let’s say “thousands” mean 2k. (2000 shares* $3.50 = $7,000) Now you say you are averaged down to $1.50. To make the math easy (and ignoring where you say in the post you have “another buy for a few shares at $2.40) lets say you have only bought shares after that post for $1.00. To average 2000 shared at $3.50 down to $1.50 you would have to buy 8000 shares at $1.00. So by the most conservative of estimates this is a $15,000 investment that has recently more then doubled in size. (2000 shares * $3.5)+(8000 shares * $1.0)= 10,000 shares at $1.50 or a $15,000 investment. I have no idea what $15,000 means in your world and I know money is valued differently by different people. But I have a hard time buying into the “it's money that I am fully willing to lose. No biggy” idea. -- Emotion seems to be involved, you appear pretty determined to say you made money on this investment. >>> One other note you say “The Novell lawsuit will immediately tell everyone - including me - what the judge thinks about the entire sale and transfer of rights and ownership.” I agree this is a big hurdle for SCO to clear. But it is just one of several hurdles. Back to baseball, It is like the Sox are down by 5 in the ninth inning. Winning this motion is like they scored a few runs and have men on base. It keeps the game from ending, but it does not mean they are going to win the game.
