Jim...

Problems....
What makes you think IOM can correct its internal problems? It has never had problems with sales, it has had problems with expenses. Tell me that has changed since last I checked?

Have you eyed the PE ratio on IOM? it is over 150 Jim... It isnt the market sweetheart that other stocks with 150 PE's are..

Next.. Why didnt SYQT make it? Maybe the market isnt profitable enough for any company. I think Sony has a better shot. It has a firm grasp on the idea of organization and business planning.

Dont be shocked if IOM stalls after a few days of run-up. I am not saying it wont, I thought about it at 2, I followed it a few years back with all the splits etc, I just think their product cycle isnt at the stage that the company is going to grow earnings period over period..

I love a good debate though!!!

Notice that there are no punches thrown or any verbal abuse ? Amazing huh?
