Microcap & Penny Stocks : FutureLink Distribution Corp. (NASD-OTCBB: "FLNK") -- Ignore unavailable to you. Want to Upgrade?

What are the prospects for FLNK? I, like the other shareholders, evidently think the prospects are bright, especially in light of this week's price rise. Is it worth getting in now, or should you wait for a pullback? Do you really think that someone can answer that question for you? If I knew the answer, I'd be a millionaire by now. Is the company making money? Why don't you do a little research yourself? Look up the public filings, and read up... Why do I sound harsh? Because you should believe almost next to nothing that you read on bulletin boards. If you ask uninformed questions here, you are ripe for the picking. Stock cheerleaders will pump you up, stock shorters will try to push you away. Either way, you will not receive the information you want (i.e., the "truth", as the company publicly reports it). Good luck.

IDC projects $2bn ASP market Mar 31st 1999: The first report to formally size the high-end application service provider (ASP) market projects it will reach $2bn worldwide by 2003, rising an average 91% annually. Leading research and analysis company IDC's new bulletin, Worldwide Application Service Provider Forecast, 1998-2003, sizes the market at $150.4m this year, counting only those ASPs who provide advanced services and complex applications such as enterprise resource planning (ERP) software. Companies who merely host and maintain simple applications are excluded. The report, published Monday (Mar 29th), says that various factors will drive the market, but that ASPs must work to overcome customer concerns by building successful long-term references. "After 1999, we'll have a better idea about how well and how fast the ASP concept will be accepted," said IDC senior analyst Meredith McCarty. The 16-page report is priced at $1,500.
