A new thread that may swim in hibernation for a few days or weeks as the process of evolution takes place ......

Imagine a slimmed down debt free company with one division stacked with orders and self financing with cash in the bank.

Then imagine a partner for the other division with pockets so deep that they could fund a rocket to the moon ..... and back

Dreaming of course but Tads can do that to you ..... what a gem or is that a bygone dream as well .....

prodman:

Interesting, but not really relevant to Tadpole plc here, as the hardware division has been sold off/spun out.

MightyMicro:

Agree, but it's interesting what they may have given up to concentrate on software.

prodman:

Sure, I think that it was a mistake to sell the hardware business. The wisdom inside was that they could afford the R+D for either the hardware or the software but not both. So they let the hardware go. I know not what led to the departure of BH and GB, but one suspects that this decision may have had something to do with it.

MM

hardware has minute margins plus all the aggro that goes with it/maintenance etc........software 85%+
QED

Hi Clarvis, the word friend is slightly misleading for me and ains!, associate yes, but having never met the man friend would be a little too much for me to claim.
That said, I and many others do converse at times and I am well aware of his expertise at trading and his ability to use lateral thinking, which sometimes creates conflict of opinions with others here.

Keeping a watch on tad , as I do, allows me sometimes to second guess, (as do many others) tads announcements, no insider knowledge just doing my own research :0)
Looking back you will see my predictions were not that far out if you check the news flow from them.

If you want the kind of news that will double the share price (and incidentally it has done that of late) you will need far more info than I could ever supply.
I invest in tad because I believe their product is ..will be..a winner, I have said on many occasions 2003 will be tads year! And I can again confidently predict news is on its way. just what that news will be, we can only guess.. at this time, however DYOR does help to predict what may be in the pipeline :0)

I offer my sincere apologies if I mislead you in any waybut watch this space. Lol

Oldolie/sequestor,

TIA

No things are a bit sub-judice at the moment Mac, i still post away from the criminals.

superrod:

Yes, but you only get software margins like 85% if anybody buys it.

try not to be logical MM, it just arouses passions in the financially inept.

err...Clarvis? Does this constitute news?

from Shares Mag......It has been a dramatic half year for this network and utilities software company. Its early promise, thanks to a tie up with leading US software ESRI, has been overshadowed by the hefty 4.3M loss from the disposal of the hardware business. The chief executive's exit in march brought a new lease of life to the share price. With the order book for core product Cartesia ten times bigger than last year, the shares warrant a speculative BUY.
thought I'd just throw it in......am I forgiven? lol...just joking.

Sequestor,

thanks and good luck with the litigation.

ps. Any good tips like NSB? (Think you put me on to it--thanks)

mightymicro
isnt that the same for any product?

olie banned....best news in years. he should be prepared to take what he dishes out imo. far too concerned whether a poswr has hus spelkchecjer operatinq.
only my opinion but is largely responsible for the demise of this and other bulletin boards. what a shame he pays premium rates or he would be out for good. in my 5 years trawling financial sites he is BY FAR the worst culprit but hides behind a perceived moral high ground.

super-odd,
me banned? , do grow up you naif, this has turned serious, and you may be involved, I posted a few minutes ago on the other side so don`t listen to the rest of your gang, they are being picked off one by one, and the pips haven`t even started to get squeEEEEEzzed yet, trust me when riled I GO THE WHOLE HOG

olie
i am not involved so do one. better still GROW UP AND TAKE A BIT OF WHAT YOU ARE HAPPY TO DISH OUT
this site could be the best if peeps like you left their petty vindettas in the garbage can

Haven't visited this thread for a while - and see things haven't changed! LOL

Superrod,

take a few minutes out and think through how you would feel if someone openly accused you of defaulting with their broker. For a serious trader it is an humiliation and insult and can understandably make the accused extremely angry.

I suspect sequester will persue this until he gains either an apology or the satisfaction of tracking the accuser down. It is not difficult to do, some London software houses specialise in pinpointing culprits to the postcode or even to the room! I would tread very wary. The fact a case has yet to go to court and win is another matter but judges are losing patience with abusers and although the journey will be long and expensive, I believe sequestor is determined to follow it through. I will be watching carefully to see who blinks first.

Sequestor, any chance of publishing your "hit list"?

TIA
