A PR field day was missed by not making certain every analyst in the country and individaul investor was aware of not just the amount but the percentages. There's a certain irony in that statement. From what people tell me, ALYD used to hype with the best of them in the early days. (True, much of this philosophy came from the early venture capitalists, and, true, the hype was infinitesimal compared to the crap spread by ZITL, but ALYD did rub some people the wrong way early on.) Now that they've finally got the contracts, become profitable, and shown sequential quarterly growth... the perception is they have gone silent just when they should be the loudest. Perhaps you are right. Perhaps ALYD should find/hire someone who can press the flesh and schmooze with the best of of 'em. Then recast Bob as the introspective visionary who saw revenues go from $32K to $6.2M in a year, and is on a path for tens of millions this year. The only thing that gives me pause about the whole issue is that it's not like all the other Y2K companies are going great guns and ALYD is lagging. However, I suppose if the sector catches fire again, it can't hurt that people think of ALYD first when deciding where to place their Y2K related investment dollar. - Jeff
