...announces noteworthy accomplishment! I wonder how the 'boys' are feeling today knowing what could have been? So sad that the $$$$'s needed to market 01's technology and move ahead in selling a winning product just didn't happen. Imagine where we might have been in the tech world of business if 01 had only had the foresight to market, advertise and spend valuable $$'s making 01 Comm a Worldly Company instead of this unproductive, so far, battle to penalize others for doing what they should have done. We s/h's would surely be enjoying better rewards $$$-wise.
...as a note, Citrix is down almost $3.75 at this point in time! Read and weap!!!
