I think this is an excellent turnaround speculation. Here's why: The company has been poorly run for a number of years. A new CEO - formerly with IBM - took the helm a few months ago. Get this: the company has $1 per share in cash, no LT debt, and an established distribution network, yet the stock currently sells for less than $1.50 per share. That means the value as a going concern is less than $0.50 a share. Sales have been partly impacted by the slowdown in Asia, but I think they were declining before that. Although they have cash, their current ability to obtain substantial credit is questionable. I'm looking for positive news on this both on the sales and earnings front, and in the product pipeline. I would also not rule out the company becoming shark bait (takeover candidate), with the current valuation. H&Q has a substantial position, and volume for the last two days has been huge. Shall we discuss the prospects??
