Thomas, where did you get that I have pessimistic views, I am possibly too blind to see a valuation of a billion bucks on this company, but the current valuation, is not particularly rich as far as internuts participants are concerned.

Zeev is asking probing questions, and his questions will help us all. Zeev always pushes me to back up my thought and do more research, and his careful ways serve to benefit those who listen to him. Yes, I provided numbers, but those numbers were little more than guesses as to where we are, and where we are going. If we have financial information on Reiter and TVoW by the end of the second quarter it will be much easier to value Ampex; right now as Zeev points out it is still pretty speculative.

Zeev and I have been having these kind of debates for several years on SI, and he is here because I badgered him on thread after thread for months until he finally put in an appearance, so I urge everyone to welcome him. I believe we can all benefit by having him here.

ETYS may have been a big success yesterday, but APLN was a bust today, barely closing above the IPO price. This rarely happened a few months ago. In my opinion there is little doubt that internut IPOs are cooling off. The ETYS IPO does show that the market will still be receptive to some IPOs.
