RE: $25 Million Earmarked for Acquisitions? Mark, You might have missed it, but Del addressed that issue (or more aptly, skirted that issue) in his last message here (#reply-3236453). I had asked about it, and he stated that they wanted cash in the bank. It was a tough question, and I didn't expect an answer. I was impressed. - Michael Coley - wwol.com

It was so naive of them to say that it was due to the market slump for BORL's price dip, instead of VSGN's deal. Market was telling us again and again that the deal was too expensive. Like a good orchestra conductor has to listen to all players', CEO and management has to listen to the market, too. A good example is ORCL, they take care of share holders during volatile times by quickly responding to the needs. WS does not like uncertainty. We're all taking enough risks everyday and don't need another uncertainty from a company who doesn't listen to the market. Reinventing company is not easy and is not cheap task either. So BORL has to show solid turn around( fatter balance )before doing any further fancy steps. regards, BPP
