Yes, I meant ASND in late 1997. Time flys! As I PMed someone, one difference between ASND and COMS is that the former was much less diversified. The benefit of diversification (and hence a factor favoring COMS) is that having all ones eggs in one basket isn't particularly safe. On the other hand, having all ones eggs in a very hot basket (ATM) worked out very well for ASND and its shareholders. Perhaps COMS management will find a way to generate shareholder value out of their own hot commodity, Palm Pilots. Gary Korn
