"Is it not enough that we take the word of the restaurants who said
"no" to it in droves? "

Agreed, did not sell many. But how many could you sell with
a salesforce of 8 (prior to MYG)? Most of the time the
majority of those 8 were occupied with Whitbread. Sales
of commercial oven are not even factored into TRBO or MYG
estimates...only HOME OVEN. However, with MYG salesforce
recently taking over commercial sales we might even make some
money there. Latest indications are home oven will roll out
earlier than expected.

"For that matter, the Maytag relationship is
over fifteen months old now and nothing has come of it. The current
contract runs out in March. Maytag can basically shut TRBO down at
that time simply by not renewing. Don't forget that."

This comment just goes to show how little research you have done
on TRBO. Yes it shows ignorance. The money stops in March but
not the relationship. I wouldnt be surprised myself if they
extended the payments until several months after the home oven
rollout. If they dont yes there will be a "dip" in earnings
2nd and 3rd quarter.

Also, see latest MYG announcement 1/15. Buying Jade appliance
manufacture. Jade makes high end ranges. In same press release
TurboChef is mentioned. Ok so over the last 15 months MYG makes
deal with TurboChef, then Blodgett, now Jade. 2+2=4 folks.

Basically the shorts are betting the home oven wont sell. Im
going with what i have seen with my own two eyes as well as
what MYG has supported in their estimates for 2000.
