All,

I had to jump in on this one today. It seems to be the most undervalued of its competition in a very undervalued sector. I'm going to try to hold this one for a year or two, but since my longest holding to date has been 4 months, I don't know if I can make it with those short-term gains looking me in the eye.

Couple of questions:

How serious is Microsoft's threat to enter the market? Do they have the knowledge to get up to speed with CHKPF in a short-time, or will they have to buy someone in the industry?

Is the 50-60% annual growth rate estimate over the next 5 years still in effect?

Grant
