Dear Alomex, If things don't turn around or at least show sign of turn around before the AGM meeting in April.Then I personally will think Dr. Cowpland should resign for the benefit of the company. I know there is no guarantee for a comapny to make great profit. But the messages Dr. Cowpland delievered to us were over statement and for that reason he, as CEO should deserve let go. I first brought stock at Cdn $10.65 and averge down to $8.9 thinking the market shares Corel grabbed from Microsoft would make it profitable. I was wrong. The only hope on this company is focus on its core office and graphic products at least to keep afloat and continue to improve VNC and Java hoping there will be big time for these products in the years down the road.

PS I am glad Corel enters the corporate market, I think this is the market has great customers not like the retail market. My friends around me most of them don't want to spend money on the softwares too much especially they can borrow from their friends. May be I am wrong again because most of the analysts think this is even risk.
IS MICROSOFT SUCH UNBEATABLE?

Dear Alomex,
One sad thing about this stock was if anyone brought this year at around Cdn $10 and even average down to around $8-9 range before big plunge. You probably still didn't have chance to exit if you didn't have a quick decision and still wanted to make small profit from it. This was suppose a speculating stock. Where was the spikes in this year's chart. It was just all the way down.
JMHO
