Right on Rod! In my books the guy is a BUM. If this was a American company he would have been long gone and have gotten his A*S sued off with the way he has promising profits and keeps coming up short while all his executives are dumping the stock. I call this pump and dump. I wonder if he is looking for some ex-executives from Bre-X because I think he is running out of ways to pump up his company. :-) Here is something of interesting.

Rod, What do you make of this? Microsoft innovates the most devious market killer since Windows Corel had a big win last week when it announced a bundling deal with PC Chips Group, the largest PC motherboard manufacturer in the world. Corel will ship about 18 million copies per year of Corel WordPerfect Suite 8 through this deal alone.... ...Unfortunately, my sources tell me that Microsoft is about to respond with a product plan that may make Corel's move irrelevant. In the long run, it may even wipe out all competing Windows application software. Microsoft is working with Intel on a new motherboard design called the Winboard. A Winboard is a complete PC on a single motherboard that works on the same principle as a Winmodem. Like a Winmodem, many of the tasks that normally would be processed by special purpose chip sets are instead handled by the operating system and software drivers. And like a Winmodem, you must be running Windows in order for the hardware to work.... infoworld.com
