Seems to me the only thing that BG can do then is sell his company to another..... If that is the case, you won't have time to get back in. Don't have a clue what will happen, but I guess that is another scenario... -Scott

>>>Even if they do $1.50 earnings this year, the street may not reward it. It's too close to 2000<<< It is NOT too close to 2000... as a matter of fact John, most companies and organizations are SO far behind in their efforts that Y2K work will be extremely profitable until 2002 or later. The federal government predicted that some of their mission critical systems won't be compliant for another 10 years! Best wishes on your future investments... I'm staying for the haul. Tech Master

>>>Re.: Without strategic acquisitions, there is no life after 2000! So we have the classic "chicken or egg" scenario. The street won't invest in a company with such a short life span and the company can't increase their long term prospects without sponsorship. <<< May not be "chicken or egg". ALYD definitely needs earnings first. That will help fund acquisitions. They made about 1.6Million last qtr. Let us say they make $4Million next qtr. How they will fund acquisition - all cash, cash+equity, or debt? If it is all cash offer, what is available for $5Million? If it is cash+equity offer, we are talking about private placement etc. (as John has repeatedly stated here). What is the plan, Mr. Gruder? With 800%% increase in earnings relative to last qtr why the stock price is drifting down? Ram
