Re: [cobalt-users] Fwd: [cobalt-pr] Microsoft Acquires Cobalt Networks (PaulSchreiber)

[Jeff Lasman <jblists@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Now that it's April 2nd <smile> I guess it's time to point out that if
Microsoft were really interested in "squashing" the competition, this
would be a good time to buy Cobalt.  It's stock price (no, I haven't
checked as of Friday close-of-market) is down from historic highs, the
company is continuing to bring out new products in response to buyer
demand, and the ease-of-use is definitely making inroads into
traditional MS "ease-of-use" areas.

And of course Cobalt insiders would make a bunch of money <smile>.

The only losers would be the Internet community (us) <frown>.

I bet they'd be considering it, if they weren't under the Dept. of
Justice cloud.
