Darrell hmm, hope you are right and I am wrong. I am now deciding how much money to leave on the table before earnings (30-70%). Why should I trust this management to deliver now? Some time ago I remember reading about couple of IBM execs joining this firm. Do you know how high in the structure they are? I imagine they would not have given up their IBM employment if they did not see substantial potential in their PTUS options.
