Joe

Be my guest, Joe 6-pack. Oh, this is funny. All these people who claim that they strongly believe in the company and Y2K potential are frettin' because somebody starts to say something negative about the company. Joe 6-pack, please post what you find out from that B-Tree company in Minetonka, I am very interested to hear. I have been to a lot of stocks with real earnings, yes people don't shake when someone posts anything negative. And if you make up stories, you just make yourself into a fool and nobody gonna believe you. But over this TPRO thread, folks get all upset and shaken.

Oh btw, when you read a news about XYZ company in Dow Jones news or in some technical magazines such as EETimes, don't just assume that it is some kind of major company. B-Tree is a tiny outfit in the suburb of Minneapolis, the company occupies a few office rooms inside a building. There have about 2 engineers doing design work (they are good, I agree, but too bad they have to work there), about 2 engineers doing training work, and a few other running around trying to fool people and make sales. The VP is a sweet talker, he can make any kind of promise until the sales is done.

The B-Tree code was originally designed by a secretary, yes I mean it, she is smart, but without the proper education, she chose the wrong type of architecture. The language is an interpreter (meaning it doesn't compile), using a C struture, but it's slow to execute and doesn't have the bang and whistle of a real C compiler. So we work around by creating DLL within the B-Tree interpreter and branch out to real C code using Visual C++. Then the B-Tree hardware crapped out, so after many attempts to fix it, we throw our hands up and put it on the shelves. So much for B-Tree test equipment.

I am on lunch break now and can type this much. I will release my writeup tonight no matter how incomplete it is because you guys/gals are so anxious to see it. Then as I remember more stories, I will post more. Deal OK? And who cares if you guys/gals don't want to believe my stories. It's your money, not mine.

And Joe 6-pack, please continue with your investigation about my personality. It should be easy as I posted all over SI, I have a real name and a real e-mail, what else do you want besides giving you my home and work numbers?
