Dave .. Liviakis Might Not Be Doing too well with Race lately but his new one is up 50% since he took it on. Check MXMX. Looking good. Maybe that explains the lack of interest in Race lately, I dunno!

I have not read the BW article, but clearly floor traders on the AMEX keeping option spreads wide has nothing to do with Liviakis or any PR firm on the planet. To suggest so reduces any credibility you may hope to establish.

David - Ed is probably three steps ahead of us in core code and I somehow doubt that HTML would bother him. I'll agree that it's an easy language to learn but nothing that we need at work - at least not in the foreseeable future. I will however agree that he does need to poke around in it a bit as extra knowledge can sometimes lead to extra pay. As to RACE: If you poke around long enough you may find a few more users than are apparent from the press releases but most are either small users or are just beginning to deploy.

Yes, DR's website is poor, and Barker said 'lack of manpower' when I proposed to fix it, about two years ago. The 'Be There' name was probably a mistake as well, it should have been a name which tells just enough of what it can do (like 'office-extender' or something, not that thats a good name.) I used to think the reason for no sales was that noone knew about BT. But as companies need to wait less and less for more bandwidth, I begin to wonder; now they can say "lets not invest heavily in equipment that makes the most out of phone lines when we can have relatively cheap digital connections in a year or two", which is true in most business centers. Why is BT not making it to market? It cant all be business incompetence of Barker/Skalla, poor web site and IR/PR, there must be more.
