Mr Pink, In your opinion, how much lower do you think MRVC will go, and by what date? Do you have a specific period in mind as to when lower will be here? I would like to acquire a lot more stock (say 50,000 shares), and I am waiting for the low point of the next 6 months. I think this is a $40 something stock, at least, and we are already near the low point. But before I mortgage the house on this one, I would appreciate any factually based opinions. Also, if the company burns cash by the ton, where is it going, and what are they doing with it? Has anyone researched and compared the expenses of MRVC with a comparable company? For that matter, who is a comparable company? jack

pINK, Well, in many cases you probably can look at the incasatries (sp.) of an acctng statement and figure out that it is a sham. I couldn't, but you can argue with Saul about who's right or not. But I'm not sure if you understand what wonderful technology and these people have, and the intellectual assets (minds) involved. That stuff doesn't show up aon a balance sheet, just like hustle and picking up loose balls doesn't show up in a basketball box score. You look at this, and MRV may not yet be Cisco averaging 30 points a game, but they are scoring points, and once they learn to bring the ball upcourt against the press (smoother Wall Street relations + customer service) watch their talent (technology) take over the game and their revenue rise as more fans (customers) come out to watch a unique team play.
