Re: CTXS and Y2K "CTXS would carry our highest investment rating, but with uncertainties associated with the Year 2000 looming, we give the shares an accumulate opinion." Thread, The above clip from David's post just goes to show how lazy some analyst are. Y2K is good for Citrix. It was one of Q1's drivers. It's no-brainer that anyone being paid to do S&P Stock Report should have known. Just goes to show, how paid professionals still screw it up. It'll be interesting to listen in on the next CC to see if any of them got any smarter. Last time I was extremely underwhelmed. MikeM(From Florida)
