Mike , once again you are incorrect. TPRO is not moving up for several reasons (it is very disappointing to see the stock so weak). First, much of the buying of y2k stocks is being done by institutions. Becasue TPRO does not have a full NASDAQ listing, most insitutions won't touch it. Second, TPRO does not have any earnings yet so it won't show up on many radar screens. Third, this is a small company that is basically about 1 year old with little following. Fourth, many institutions will not touch a stock priced under $10. Fifth, do you think BMY is stupid? They believed in TPRO enough, along with a few other big name companies, to sign contracts. Only time will tell who is right or wrong. Fool on!

<<< When most Y2K stocks move up today and TPRO makes no move, that tells us a lot whether this is a Y2K stock.>>>> Mike, Yes it will. Although a day's trading will never provide an accurate assessment of a company's potential. And thus far I have seen nothing that you have presented that suggests that TPRO isn't setting the foundation for it to participate not only as a Y2K consultantcy, but also as a BPR consultant. Even an embedded systems programmer like yourself must see efficiencies in manufacturing that have been sidelined or ignored. Manufacturers will pay for TPRO services because they are so behind the power curve regarding Y2K and they will not want to take the chance of problems on the manufacturing floor. TPRO may have clients that fail to require even one system being replaced due to embedded chips. But until they are checked one by one, they won't really know, now will they?? Regards, Ron
