I think all of you who are knocking Del should quiet it down or at a minimum tone it down already. My belief is that Del has a plan and is committed to providing value for INPR shareholders. There is a transition going on and to make it visibly successful it takes time. I remember very clearly after the Visigenic's buy-out how Del was blasted, currently the posts I am reading here seem to be applauding the Visigenic's addition to INPR. If Del gives it his best and aims right all will (should) be accomplished in time. Knocking Del on this thread serves NO value to anyone and adds NO value to us shareholders. For sure I have a vested 50K share interest here (at a much higher average share price than where we are now) and support Del's direction and committment to see it through. Yes, there are still amny things that have to be done and others that have to be done better .. hopefully Del is listening and they will be addressed. There is a progression of positive confluences occurring now and if continued will prove value to shareholders. JMHO Michael P.S. - The "RUDE and VILE" postings against Del are unnecessary and immature ... contructive criticism is warranted, desireable and helpful.

>> Maybe we should start an "Inprise: Time To Fire Yocam" thread? << You've got my vote! I'm also SICK TO MY STOMACH watching these ridiculously high compensations being paid to a CEO with so far, very little to show for.. If things don't work out,these guys just move on to yet another adventure without a scratch. It's US shareholder who are going to be left hanging for the dry! IMHO their compensation should reflect their and the company's performance, and it's our responsibility to not let things like this get out of hand.. It's OUR money that's on the line here ! My two cents. Bob
