   Gee... $15 Million in revenue is a "Bad Thing"(tm)???  Not the $18
Million they expected.  What sort of P/E does the $15 mil represent?  I
would have to say that is GOOD news in light of the number of Linux
distributions that tanked in the last 12 months.

   And I'm not at all suprised to hear they are cutting costs and letting
go their Chief Technology officer.  They are long overdue to perform a bit
of 'restructuring'...
