<< I had visions of throwing an orgy or something here at the house. I settled for the two cheeseburgers for two bucks at MacDonaldÕs, a 12 pack, and the company on the Ampex board...... So much for the "vision" thing. This has happened for the last two years in a row......Wait till next year....IÕll have Ôem standing in line.........>> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ i can see it now. $2$$2$$2$... two cheeseburgers shimmying claymation style between a dozen [stretched] bottles pallbearer style....lined up, with temptations-like footwork diving [in orderly fashion] off the ampex board..... into a steamy hot tub[richard pryor providing said steam]. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ jd salinger? some of us must show more literate symptoms than others.

Tremendous post, Al........really laughing out loud. And accurate big picture. That may be just the BBQ at the celebration you smell - always that hope with AXC - and maybe the Pryor image means the srock is basing ...or freebasing.....something like that. You explained to me once how those big accented Os get in there by mistake. Mac spellcheck thing, wasn't it? And hilarious vision, Randy. Small Lockheed contract. They wouldn't have even released the news in the old days. The Imagio touch. The important ( to me) positive aspect of it is that those with huge storage needs that can afford the best buy Ampex. At the terabyte level AXC is both the cheapest and the fastest and the most space efficient ( by far) in the world. DST sales protect the downside. Hope the web or licensing or some product from patents or something creates an upside. Love this volume, for as Ed says, it gives many eager to sell on upticks a chance to ease their mind and take their tax loss or trading gain. Hey they don't know it today, but I bet they miss that AXC pain someday. PS good luck to AXC or anyone that develops visceral computer interaction..but here's one vote for the old days. BTW I've been stretching a condom over my computer tower to prevent viruses. Will that work?
