Now we know that IBM is making an offer on SWRT. But this message board got scooped!!

The following was received yesterday by email from StockRumors:

StockRumors (not Silicon Investors) got the story first. Unfortunately, I wanted to check out the company overnight, rather than rush in to buy on a rumor, so I too have missed this boat.

If anyone wants to get on their email list, their URL is stockrumors.com

Also in yesterdays email report was a suggestion that Showboat might be in play. Today (per CNBC) Harrahs has made a bid on Showboat.
