Did someone say 'miserable shareholders?' LOL. Right on post, Ed. I do share Hal's concern for the eventual vise-like squeeze that the debt will cause.

"hyper processor programming" Doesn't AXC have a company connection into this area of expertise? From the YAHOO thread: <<I THINK I HAVE IT FIGURED OUT. by: middlemgmtinFL (48/Florida) 2339 of 2346 There is a rumor that some company is developing downloadable mass storage technology and hyper processor programming compatible (I think) with Pentium technology. Wouldn't it be a kick if my P166/2gigg had P400/10-15 or even 20 gigg capability for a small fee to Ampex! Think of the revenue this company will see in 1999! No news might be due to the impact it will have on the Dell/Gateway/IBM/etc companies. Might explain why all the web access is being made available. If this is true- AXC will be bought immediately by one of the big boys for BIG$$$! Any thoughts? >> messages.yahoo.com@m2.yahoo.com

This seems like a great thought related to client servers. From YAHOO once again: << The Ultimate Thin Client/Server by: readyshootaim 2346 of 2346 Let the skies be the limit for AXC!! If someone could figure out how to store database entries and such on the server in encrypted form, with decryption only to take place at the client level, then the obvious business would be to sell server services to be accessed via the ultimate thin client - the web browser!! Imagine having access to all of your data anywhere you have access to a web browser. How many gazillion terabytes of storage will that take to serve the internet population!!? Only tapes would do it. Hard drives will forever be playing catchup. Right now few people or businesses would entrust their business or personal data to a 3rd party administrator, because they know that whoever is running the server would have access to the data. But if you could store your data where nobody (including the sys admin) can have access without your authorization - why bring your 10 lb (including batteries) laptop on the next business trip? >> messages.yahoo.com@m2.yahoo.com
