There are all sorts of possibilities here. HTSF came out of its incubator and has initiated activity on several fronts. Now if Ben can retain the momentum the company and the stock price will grow. The big guys would rather buyout a company with desirable technology on the cheap than spend the time in development. They do it all day, every day. Ben did allude to a buyout as part of his long range strategy, but I have confidence that the price would be satisfactory to the shareholders, which he obviously is the biggest holder. If HTSF can accomplish sales and profit growth from the recent announcements we'll have price appreciation, otherwise all we'll have is more conversation. Rap

"It seems to me many of you have taken profits and are 'hoping' to drive the price down for a re-entry." Fred, Allow me to be slightly offended on behalf of the many long term HTSF holders at this comment. I am long several thousand shares and if I did sell them, it would be a long term capital gain for me. I have no interest in driving the price anywhere but up, but doubt I will sell much of my holdings this year. This thread has been a haven of intelligent, thoughtful conversation from Heartsoft "true believers" for quite a while, and Ben Shell not only reads it, he responds to our questions and ideas. I expect there to be a great deal of conversation about the new browser product, and if we (and HTSF) can learn anything from it, great. Certainly, there has been a recent flurry of day trader activity in this stock and on this thread, but it doesn't change the fundamental nature of this real company with real products, and now a new product in development involving an internet browser. Part of me wishes they kept the browser product under wraps until it was ready for release so folks focused on the underlying foundation of the company. (On the other hand, many more investors are paying attention to us now.) Sorry for the sermon, but some of us have been around for a while and will be until Ben hits his 60 cents a share goal. Maybe the new product will get us there sooner, but the company intended to get there before the browser was on the radar. Good luck, Bob
