Tech Master,

>>with 45 million shares outstanding, TPII will have its work cut out for it to justify its current market cap...

I think TPII has only 15 million shares outstanding. Can anyone confirm
this.

Tech Master -

Writing code scanners is trivial....

Entirely correct. Anyone with a $29.95 word processor has a scanner.

Just to split hairs here... the hairy work gets done via parsing which a process that makes an attempt at 'understanding' the context of the code being read.

Industrial strength parsing is non-trivial work. There aren't more than a handful of good tools for it. Much of the bleeding edge parsing work in recent times has gone into academic oriented Unix based tools... which for Y2K work is like hunting blue whales with a BB gun.

Tpii only has 15.5 million shares outstanding. FYI. I hope your not lost in space. After being a development stage company, they are now starting to deliver on the promises they made. Everything has changed, and the market said it did. I know another y2k co that said they would have 9.5 mil. in revenue in the 4th quarter and between 10 and 12 mil in the first quarter. Broken promises. I hope THEY can justify a market cap of a zillion dollars! THEY CAN! Because the ground is fertile, and the weather is just right for these stocks to grow like a weed. Tpii will grow and fly my friend, and so will that other company who was just a development stage co with 150,000 in revenue just 360 days ago and promply went to 33.00 on the same amount of shares as tpii. Have a little faith.
