Steve,

If it's not too much trouble, can you give me a brief background on Young, in terms of why many here dislike him and want him booted out. Wasn't he a past CEO of HP back in the late 70's/early 80's? Is he just too old for the position, or were his decisions on the board detrimental to Novells business in the past? Sorry to sound so naive, but I just don't have the scoop. I realize I may have to dig back quite a ways on this thread, but if you can point out a spot, I'll start my search there.

Thanks!

Quad-K

Hi Steve,

I think the most recent 10Q is having more effect on the price than options. It's not the sweetness and light document the 10K was. I still can't figure out why folks are paying over $9 this early in the game. Revenue is still declining, 5.0 is starting to slip and the law suit is a time bomb just ticking away. I'm still not interested in holding it long over night until some of that news is factored into the price, and the MMs are still playing too much mickey mouse for day trading. I'll wait. Good luck.

Regards,

Don
