Does anybody actually pay him to publish such ill informed stories? Insook, Actually, this turns out to be good news. After spending hours reading the newsgroup and related stories, I have the following assessments: 1) The sell off on Apr 29 was caused by the knee-jerk reaction to the uncertainty of the new business model and especially the name change. As we all know, the business model hasn't changed. We've been heading this way all along. It's just the first time they make a big deal about it. 2) Monsieur Yocum, his team and the PR firm that came up with the Inprise name, have done a wonderful job. The word 'In' as in Intelligence, 'In' crowd, has positive connotation (Just ask Insook, right?) The word 'prise' also has positive sounding to it. As the master (Gann) himself stated the importance of name, we are 'IN' the uptrend, instead of 'Bore'. 3) Jesse's article has provided the instant proof of the slanders that he and the MS machine have been painting Borl with for years. Man, he must be pissed that, in a single meeting, Monsieur Jocum pulled the rug out from under him and other slime bags like him. Now they have to start all over again. But that will be difficult because he'll look foolish to the world bad mouthing a new company, so he had to start off with old slime and try to make the connection. All those hard work down the drain, SORRY Jesse! This proves to me that Monsieur Jociam did the right thing. 4) Every time Mr. Drive-By-Investment aka Microsoft-Shill Vin Wood shows up here to deliver 'supposedly' bad news, it's time to buy. He's such a loser that betting against him has proven to be the right thing to do. My conclusion, Inprise/Borl is a buy (more.)
