good stuff!
good. thanks for the info
what's that mean?
Maybe there won't be another PIPE.
it would've been done by now, don't you think?
From your lips to God's ears.
IMHO, this enterprise is so unique that I cannot
believe that it has not received it due attention.
but what do I know?
Yeah.I like the Lockheed videos Good Stuff!
At the end of the day, hardware based security via
the TCG is going to be a huge part of cybersecurity
efforts in organizations like Lockheed Marietta.
Hardware based security, unlike software based security,
is all about endpoint security, which is the coup de
grace of cybersecurity.
Software based security is incapable of establishing
robust endpoint security. And, without REAL endpoint
security systems, there can be no true organizational
cybersecurity systems.
Given today's laptop and/or mobile computer units flying
around the globe via corporate executives trying to
conduct business in all its facets, the endpoint security
variable becomes critical. The same goes for the public
sector in the military/national security and health arenas.
The only way to secure these socalled endpoints is via
hardware based security. Software doesn't cut it! And, this
enterprise is the doorkeeper (or gatekeeper) to all those
little TPMs that feature so prominently in the picture
I just outlined above.
You need a good gatekeeper.
I am feeling very good about all of this.
yessir.
CM, I think you are very right when you say
Layered Security. The great thing about hardware
based security is that you can 'layer' (or localize)
it. So, even if there is a breach, the damage can
be very quickly contained. Software based security
is really damaging because a single breach translates
into enormous compromise issues.
Endpoint security is critical. This is where hardware
based security reigns supreme. If one can secure the
endpoints, then one is way ahead of the security issue.
And even if an endpoint is compromised, hardware based
security can remove the compromise much faster, thereby
minimizing the damage.
hope this makes sense.
tkc, read Fullmoon's post.
You can journal stocks that are in the 'cash account' over
to the 'margin account' and you can journal stocks that are
in the 'margin account' (or as the operations people say it
'on the margin side')over to the 'cash account' or 'cash
side'.
All you have to do is call up your brokerage company and ask
the operations person to journal ABC stock from the 'margin
side' to the 'cash side' of your account.
That's it! Read Fullmoon's post. He is 100% correct.
Wow! Talk about a tempest in a teapot!
I think this is all just an orchestrated distraction.
good night
We should be done with it as I said earlier
tonight.
As far as I am concerned, this is all just a
distraction. For whatever reason it is being
brought up (Dr. Nick et al) I have no idea.
We should be talking about the fundamentals and
the fact that this company is about to go
BreakEven in the next quarter or so. And also,
I think that this company is about to land a
major public sector contract in some manner or
form.
I think it is absurd that we are talking about
shorting and margin accounts etc etc. And worse,
the posts here about brokerage account mechanics/ops
have been totally wrong with the exception of
FullMoon's post which is totally 100% accurate.
enough said.
good night
Read Fullmoon's description of account mechanics
here in the US.
His description is 100% correct. Frankly, I don't care
if you stand by your statement.
If you want to take it to 'court', then I am 100% ready
because Fullmoon is correct.
FHM doesn't know what he is talking about.
Thank You.
Fullmoon is ABSOLUTELY correct in his description
of broker account mechanics here in the USA
Absolutely CORRECT...100%.
does every broker abide by these account rules?
probably not.
But Fullmoon is 100% correct.
thank you
FHM, Fullmoon is totally correct on his explanation
of account types.
All brokers use the same system in the USA.
do you have an account here in the USA? If you do, then
you would know that FullMoon is 100% correct.
I don't know where you are coming from, frankly.
Fullmoon, you are absolutely correct.
floridahockeyman is totally incorrect. I don't think he
knows what he is talking about.
Lastly, what is all this discussion about borrowed shares
and shorting?
I think it is all a distraction. This has nothing to do
with the fundamentals and the fact that this company is
making steady progress and will be BREAKEVEN in the next
quarter or two.
The 'spin' on this stock is borderline scandalous.
No. I am VERY POSITIVE about this company.
I am out of here because I feel intimidated.
IMHO, this enterprise is truly one of a kind
To all the strong shareholders, I say to you that
you should not feel afraid or insecure about your
sentiments here.
IMHO, this will be truly one of the great investment
decisions.
stay long and strong!

I am out of here.
Keep the faith. Don't be distracted.
Stay long and prosper.
John the Baptist
There is a poster here who goes by the name 'weets'.
He keeps shouting out "It's coming!".
It reminds me of St. John the Baptist who kept shouting
"He is coming. The Son of God will come amongst us!"
John the Baptist traveled the desert with nothing and
continued to tell the folk that He will arrive. Many
sneered and jeered at him. They threw rocks at him and
ran him out of small towns.
He knew it was going to happen. It was just a matter of
time.
Folks, don't be distracted by the background noise. This
company is making steady progress. Its day will come. Don't
bail out early.
All of the above is just my humble opinion. But, I believe
the big events are just around the corner. Keep up the
faith. Don't be distracted.
Just friendly and very good advice.
Govt Hires 'Dark Tangent' Well known hacker to Cybersecurity
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,525428,00.html
This shows you that cybersecurity is top priority. Hardware
based security is the best.
Good news for us.
CMD
I think some govt agencies who view data security
as super critical will adopt sooner.
National security and health are two areas who will
adopt alot sooner.
mundo, I appreciate all the posts and links,but
how does it pertain to Wave Systems?
thanks in advance for your illumination.
CMD
Snackman, great!
Frankly, the more I think about it, the more I realize that
this company is really well positioned for very strong revenue&
earnings growth each and every quarter for the foreseeable
future.
The TPM & related market is now very very large and so all that
needs to happen is tap into it as the opportunities arise.
This company is so small that any growth at all could be very
meaningful on a percentage basis. So, I look at it as a "Warp Drive" sort of growth situation (in Trekkie terms).
CMD
Weby, thanks for the reply. I understand now.
Well, it doesn't seem realistic to expect all 50 million
computers (and TPMs) to activate all at once. The only
way that could possibly happen is some sort of government
edict or a law being passed requiring it.
But, isn't it quite possible for 2 or 3 or even 5 million
TPMs to go active over the next couple of years? And if
that happens, then is it reasonable to see a bunch of
ERAS sales flowing to the company over the same timeframe?
And, if the military or government decides to start the ball
rolling with a program or two, then wouldn't that prompt
other entities to participate in some fashion, thereby
generating more ERAS sales?
I don't know how this snowball starts rolling down the slope,
but one would think that something is going to happen with
all those computers w/ TPMs out there and more and more public
awareness of TPM management via TCG.
I guess the fastest way to generate momentum would be some
public (military) contract. I guess that is where Admiral Inman
plays a part. There is no way Inman would get involved unless
there is something going on. The guy would only get involved
because there is alot of potential and maybe more than just potential. He is too busy and has too many options available to him.
Wow. 50 million computers! Would you know how many new computers with TPMs are rolling out each month?
this is fascinating stuff.
thanks
anvil, what do you mean by 'why 50m has not been
convered, yet may still be out there to convert.'?
are those some kind of warrant or something?
thanks
Government Computer News Mag Reviews Wave Systems
http://gcn.com/articles/2008/08/15/device-control-from-a-distance.aspx
This may have been posted before but it can't hurt to
post again.
GCN gives a very positive review of the ERAS.
Combine this with recent Army news of 'mandatory'(IMHO)
purchase of SEDs for new laptops etc and I think one
can see that developments are lining up very nicely
for this enterprises' future growth horizon.
if you catch my drift.
Just my opinion but I think it is more mandatory than
optional in today's environment. Yes, you are right
that the purchase is optional, but I think that the
Army is really considering any new laptops must come
with SEDs.
Officially- Optional
Realistically- Mandatory
just my opinion
Ahh. I think I understand better the issue/problem here. Perhaps
an analogy or story could of some help (or perhaps not).
I know a very successful pizza company in the Southeast which
started up about 18 years ago or thereabouts. It is a private
company. Well, the founder started the company out of an unused
storage closet in his dad's garage business. So it is the
classic success story. Work hard, keep your customers happy,
stay focused and outsmart(or outwork) the competition. Today,
his operation is the most successful private pizza company in
the region.
But there were times when things were really tough for one reason
or another. Once, he switched a supplier for cost reasons and
he paid dearly. Another big problem occurred when a competitor
started an aggressive price war that forced him to cut prices too. A major cost reduction program saved him and this turned
out to a long term blessing when prices normalized after the
price war.
Anyway, his company is now flourishing after almost two decades
of hard work, and he is a very wealthy and satisfied entrepren-
eur. But, it took a long long time. He says that every week
he counts his blessings, but reminds himself that successful
business always requires hard work and constant diligence. He
persevered through the tough times because he says he always
felt that his mission would work fine over the long haul. He enjoys his work and he likes to see happy customers.
Now, the more I think about this, the more I see there is a
BIG difference between the pizza story above and this company
Inman just joined. The pizza entrepreneur never had to think
about a stock price at the end of each day. He didn't really
know or care what his operation was "valued" each day. He
kept on working hard and staying true to his mission. This has
always been the big 'bugaboo' of stock investing versus private
entrepreneurship. In reality, there is no major difference
except the PERCEPTION. Private companies have the same business
challenges as public companies do. But, private companies do
not have the 'daily perception' issue that is generated by a
stock price at the end of each business day.
Start-ups take a long, long time to take off, assuming they
take off to begin with. It sounds like some people here are
having a hard time dealing with this reality. If this is so,
then I think they need a reality check. I say this not as an
admonishment, but rather just a simple fact. For example, Dell
started up in 1984.It wasn't until 1994 that Dell really
started to take off and flourish. It took a decade or so.
Well, this post probably won't help alot for those of you who
have been in this comapny for a very long time. But, you
might want to realize that sometimes it takes a very long time
for tech start-ups to gain traction and flourish. If you didn't
realize this fact before, then perhaps you better understand it
now.
All the best and ......CMD
What kind of news can we expect?
I have no idea.
Stock price potential?
I have no idea.
I am groping around in the dark like all of you.
However, look at the individual pieces of the 'puzzle'. What
do they tell you?
Recently, this company seems to be making reasonable progress
towards breakeven.
But, I think the most important element here is the relationship configuration. It seems that the 'gorilla' party list is growing longer and longer. Admiral Inman is now a
Board Advisor. What does that mean? I think it means that
something connected to the public sector is quite possible.
It doesn't take a genius IQ to work with these clues and figure
that something significant could unfold.
We won't know until the possible is announced. Until then
everything is just conjecture. Conservative investors might
want to wait until everything is on the table.
CATCH MY DRIFT
I am new on this board. The Adm. Inman news caught my
attention. Bluntly speaking, I don't think he would
come aboard a 'start-up' company unless there was alot
of potential going forward. Needless to say, he has
alot of clout in government circles when it comes to
national security (NSA related) matters.
It seems that this company is growing its 'gorilla
relationships' at a pretty fast clip. Dell, Samsung,
Toshiba, Acer etc etc..... pretty impressive.
Trading volume seems to have picked up significantly
since the Adm. Inman announcement. I have read alot of
the info posted here, and I conclude that no one really
has a handle on what is going on here. It seems that
most of the posters here are just groping around in the
dark. I am not being derogative or insulting when I say
this because I understand that no one has 'inside info'
or anything like that.
Having said the above, I think that there is ample
anectodal evidence to say that there is something signi-
ficant that could happen with this company in the not
too distant future. It seems that there is a distinct
possibility that this company could be part of a very
large public endeavor to secure public data.
No one knows for sure. But, looking at the pieces of
the puzzle it seems that this company could be a major
player in the public sector's agenda to secure sensitive
public data.....cyber warfare and or related.
I like the odds here. This could be very exciting and
most interesting from an investment perspective.....
IF YOU CATCH MY DRIFT....
