<<I see you've already been warmly welcomed to the thread.>> Morning, Larry. I find it kinda amusing actually. Sounds like a gourmet feast is being prepared in the background. Personally, I prefer to be roasted with an apple in my mouth, and buried in a pit under hot coals. Do you think they'll be able to accommodate these preferences? <he he> <<Using the Altman model is kind of like killing a fly with a bazooka in this case, IMO.>> Perhaps, but that doesn't mean the bazooka isn't an effective weapon. Although designed for much mightier targets, obviously, a bazooka will kill a fly, too, if the fly gets in the way. ;^) Good to see another voice of reason on this thread besides my dear old, hapless, non-tech-risk-understanding friend, Zeev. LOL. Razor

Larry> Don't you think that you are a little quick to discount this thread's objectiveness. Many of us have thanked you for your input in the past and have remarked on the value of having all sides being intelligently represented. What we have objected to, and rightfully so, are the insults issued merely on agreement or disagreement with one issue or another. In regards to the "A-Z model", my first reaction is that it seems like it was probably designed for evaluating companies that have already been operating for some period of time under a more traditional production/sale format. It seems a little awkward to apply it to a company who has spent its whole life developing a product and as yet not having moved into the "real world", the old round peg/square hole situation. duckster
