Tim........................ Do you believe as per the Time Magazine article that China's PC sales will exceed that of the United States? (US domestic numbers alone project 52mil, plus with y2k many businesses are buying new hardware compliant systems to replace old 386, & 486's) Now regarding Ted Turner, the conflicting numbers that appear to be incorrect are not used in a magazine article the same way exaggerated claims are used in a "investment" newsletter to generate share interest. The Time Mag's article's figures aren't used in anyway to generate share holder interest. Whereas inflated claims by a stock letter where there is a direct financial interest both from free shares received and a disclaimer that states "...OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, AND EMPLOYEES OF WALL STREET RESEARCH GROUP OR OTC COMMUNICATIONS AND FINANCIAL ANALYSTS MENTIONED, AND MEMBERS OF THEIR FAMILIES HOLD A POSITION AND MAY FROM TIME TO TIME TRADE IN THESE SECURITIES FOR THEIR OWN ACCOUNTS..." Inflated claims become a self-serving effort to pump shares to dump these shares after the paid for analysis has been disseminated. THIS IS MANIPULATION and is a SEC violation. Unfortunately for GTCI, many people are getting wise to this blatant device to pump share price. Now if you can't distinguish the difference, you are not as smart as you imagine you are. Now companys are required to file 15c211 to be listed on the OTC exchange, any savvy investor realizes that a 15c211 doesn't qualify a company as being reporting A reporting company files a 10sb or 10k JV approval agreements and what they actually contain especially between private companies are not in the public domain. The exact nature of the reported agreement should be questioned because the agreement is with a subsidiary (one of how many subsidiaries?????) and if this agreement is in anyway similar to iBIZ's "agreement" with CITRIX that was grossly overstated, what is the reality of the news release anyway? The other party's opinion of these agreements, therefore, is critical. Thus you have only told me you have read the company's PR's and heard the company spin. You have not explained why you "...think {you are] fairly informed as to the company's strategy, game plan and their ability to carry them out..." I'd like to hear more about your information, since hitherto neither you nor or the company has explained the game plan. You seem to be a big believer but can't provide the information necessary to independent verify the company's claims...which begs the question...and that question is... are you in anyway related to the company or WSRG? Regarding BB's, there are many that are fully reporting, have stellar management, and/or real alliances plus news that is quite compelling. Look at the news/management for TSIG, PNLK, MUCP,SNMM, INOW...et cetera Sincerely, ztect btw..here is a link to one source that projects a billion users by the year 2000...but I have to agree that this projection based on current numbers seems extreme even though I've heard this number many times.e-land.com Though these numbers below from this source call into question just about every statistic I heard.... Now in USe-land.com Projected Worldwidee-land.com Here are some stats for PC growth as well (Note these are for PC's in households and don't appear ti include business use)e-land.com e-land.com Some explanation of these stats provided per this link..e-land.com
