To Pete: What is there in MCRE that you see? The historical facts are dismal. Like anybody, I'd like to buy at a beaten down price but I have to have a reason other than price. What do you believe is on the horizon?

Pete have you followed Zenith and TRUV ? Both are below $2. Look at their charts. I gave up on MCRE...had to. I was scared it would go to minus $1 ! Couldn't handle the pressure of losing all my $$$$. RTG...sounds great to me but where is it ? If it were in a chip or an op sys than maybe I would get excited. But right now where is it ? Its in MCRE products but where is the demand ? At their web page is a PC version MetaStream plug-in/browser but I have a Mac and can't sample the technology. Why ? Wouldn't you expect a Mac version plug-in of MetaStream >?

>> On Wall Street, you're supposed to buy when there's blood in the streets (i.e. when the stock price is low), and sell when it is dear. << This credo works in some instances and it appears to be appropriate with this stock. It didn't work with Cendant nor Oxford Health when those two got killed. Anyone have an explanation for the ~$1 appreciation since the poor earnings announcement? Is MCRE doing a buy-back on the open market to shore up it's shares?
