Off topic for Tom,

A couple of million shares of PWSP is certainly within almost anyone's reach.

I've done some preliminary checking on TTN and it looks interesting. The year 2000 reference I saw was to some contracts they have signed in the telecommunications industry which are an extention of their client-server business in this area. I like this. Most of the companies in the yr 2000 biz are concentrating on COBOL mainframe legacy programs. This is a very competitive arena and none of the participants brings any special advantages. TTN's approach keeps them out of that mess and focuses them in an area where they can combine it with the rest of their business. Also yr2000 is not their whole biz just part of the portfolio. They seem to have a lot of contracts signed recently. I am sure you also saw on Yahoo the comments about their spinning off Linkabit. The current share price is less than the estimated value of the shares they will be keeping let alone the 30% they will sell. Makes you wonder why they are selling for only $6.

I have a few friends in San Diego and will see what they know. Also I am on friendly terms with the guy who started the SI thread even though he doesn't post any longer. I will get in touch with him as well and see what he thinks. I think I will pick up a few shares tomorrow to keep me focused.

Thanks for the tip

Henry
