Hi tkc,

It kinda depends on the size of the offeror. If it was a McAfee or a Symantec, it would be unappealing to me. And only someone on that scale is going to make an offer.

Personally, I harbour unsafe delusions of grandeur. So I want the company to remain independent.

Understand your position though.

I surmised that but needed conformation. If one can have confidence in Sprague-speak in the "unsafe harbor" one could finally conclude that an offer to purchase is a concern. That's a double edged sword depending on one's personal perspectives and time frame. There are the obvious benefits, assuming the purchaser actually wanted to market Wave's products successfully. Again, assuming much deeper pockets, better marketing and relationships I would think (1)that TC adoption would be expedited;(2)the purchase would be accretive quickly causing appreciation in the value of that Co's share price (thus Wave's shareholders if paid w/ shares in the aquiring Co); (3) for those like myself who's time frame is quickly running out (and there are a lot) any fair premium would be welcome; (4) Real management could prove to be of substantial benefit; (5) I suspect there would be significant synergies; (6) combined R&Ds might be less expensive and more productive...etc
I'd welcome an offer. Don't have to accept it. Just an offer would give the SP some juice. Lay it on me. Thx CF
