Jeff, << PR >>

I expected to get a lot of heat over my comments. Thus far none,
including private messages. Maybe one day we'll get lucky and squawk
box will call him for a freebee! I may email them and ask why they
don't cover the Y2K issue with a Y2k CEO, someone like ALYD who's
proven to have a good track record. Or maybe Ted from FBN.:-)

I've checked the new web site and you are right it is a bit slicker. But what happened to the pages with the nice pictures of motor cars on? Also when you try and watch the video of Kevin Klein it can not be found - is there a reason for this? (perhaps it is a European thing...)

TED, congratulations on that 6666 post.

Jeff, you wanted an opinion:

Hello Shareholders, it's been a while since I posted but I still read this thread everyday. The truth is I dumped most of my shares (60%) when Thump 9 posted that he and David Borax of the Charlotte Observer found that Alydaar had to sue a customer to get paid because the customer didn't like the work.

I made some money on some shares and lost money on some shares. Had to stay out for a while to be able to take the losses and not get burned by the IRS.

In my post Message 4088571 to Mr. Gruder I stated a deal was made and got torched. I said

Just for the record it looks like you've cut a deal with someone else such as a mutual fund and are intentionally withholding news that could make the stock fly. There is no reason for this kind of volume with out price fluctuation otherwise. Maybe you're letting them load up at this price so you don't have to do a secondary offering soon, maybe not. No one knows for sure except you and a chosen few.

Later on I asked in this post Message 4334715 about institutional ownership. My reason was to confirm what was said later this week about in post Message 5004900 by JG.

Anyway fellow investors, these Fund managers who now own 28%+ will not let the name Alydaar Software go unnoticed. Since we found out about the Fund ownership another 750,000 or so shares have been passed at the 12 to 13 dollar range. It would not surprise me if most of that were Fund buying.

The bottom line is in my opinion that Mutual Fund manager and Market Makers are working together to buy most of the shares. If Fund managers told Market Makers they wanted 5 million shares at a certain price level I think they could and would hold the price. I personally believe that's what happening. It's just an opinion, but my thoughts.

Now that the weak have been shaken out and the mighty Fund Managers have bought most of the outstanding shares in float we will here the name Alydaar. Not buy the company but by the Fund Managers who were lucky enough to get the inside scoop before we did. There just can't be many cheap shares left.

By the way, I also think that Alydaar will not have to pay for the CNBC time. Fund Managers will.

-Robert

PS. Good luck to all. I'm loading back up.

Dear Jeff: I for one would be OPPOSED to spending anything like $500,000 on advertisment for a small company like ALYD. They have been out there long enough that word of mouth alone among the big companies, plus attendance at the appropriate conferences should be adequate. As far as Investors are concerned, advertising dollars are meaningless IMHO, what makes the stock go up is when OTHERS start talking about you. Get a high profile custormer like TAVA did and they will come to you for FREE to have you talk. JDN

all
in the industry there is a mag called cio (chief information officer). it is widely read by the man in the hot as far as y2k goes - the cio. why alyd is not advertising there is baffaling to me.
i've been in this biz over 20 years and have sold some really neat bleeding edge technology (amdahl, teradata, raid before anyone even heard of raid) and you bet, i don't care how good the mousetrap, the world is NOT going to beat a path to your door. i met with kevin kimberlin when he basically kept them alive before this y2k thing came along and he even called bg difficult to deal with. pr, good management, turn profitable, good acquisition, who knows, the jury is still out.
do they have good tech, will the euro pull them along, yes, will bg ever listen to anyone - ??
