WAIT. The penny is the OTHER way! Any clues about the 'downward adjustment' of late, except the general market tone? This thing didn't have much slack between its price and nothingness.
So why should I have to pay to participate in the MSFT effort to buy back their shares? What part of the concept am I missing?
Last I looked..
AMNI 0.0135, up 0.0049, with 8,283,694 shares traded. High today: 0.014
Now that's what I like to see when I get my morning coffee.

Good show. This is the spirit of small business progress our economy needs.
Personally, I wish I had the funds to support them in the manner they deserve, but I'll have to just demonstrate my faith in their ability with a stock purchase.
Well, y'all know what they say about AAPL...
UP on rumor - DOWN on news
I don't think it's Apple's fault; I've seen short-sighted thinking pervade several industries. No reason to think the Street should be immune. I do get the feeling that the bull horns someone strapped to a bear's head are starting to loosen and fall off.
I'm too chicken to dip my toes into the options swimming holes. I don't know enough, and what I do know scares me away.

If it were just AAPL I'd be freaking out. Fact is, hype or no hype, Opie or no Opie, new sales to newbies and converts figures aside, there's a lot of slide between the current bid/ask and the place where some of us bought in heavy (8-10/share). I'm no economist, but logic dictates that sales figures will flatten out a tad.
I'm writing this on my eMac which, just like all my prior Mac products, has been rock-solid stable and BSOD-proof since the day I flipped on the power. Apple does it right. Folks are slowly catching onto this, it seems.
It's true that Macs cost more than most PC users are tuned into paying. But for my sense of logic, I'm more than willing to pay for the vastly more stable, nearly bulletproof secure environment and hardware.
Well, I was asking the questions specifically as what you are describing is nothing more complex than what we do at our house, and it doesn't take a server to handle it. The questions are coming from my husband, actually, who said if he has that info he can help sort things out. Your call, of course, but we MacFolk stick together, and we're glad to assist. If you don't mind posting the answers here, I'll relay them to my husband and get his answers to you in a return post.

do you mean, you can only see the dropbox,
or it is the only thing you can write to?
do you see the same things when logging in either way?
Things are moving forward with the conversion. Without going into specific dates and details, I'm told these things can take some time to process through the necessary channels. Keep the faith, folks.
So how does this work exactly? Is there something automatic that will take our HSTJ and turn it into AMNI, or do we need to file for some conversion? I've not been through something like this before, in my limited market experience.
Patience. Word also has it that they are working toward a solution. These things take time, and it's not like we can do anything with the shares we own except check them for a pulse once in awhile.
Holding quite a few shares ... not like I have a choice now. What are our options in a case like this? Or are we faced with waving g'bye to a handful of useless paper?
Seems to me that every time it gains an inch reflected on the last, it hovers then drops back down to .0001 or thereabouts, though right now it's sitting at .006 (11:26am EST), down from an overnight of .02.
I'm enjoying watching the mini-rollercoaster effect, but I'm more concerned about what should be happening with the stock given the product they're marketing. Anything that will keep our lads safer from the bombings should be supported.
Don't get me wrong: I've bought my share of stock in buttonhook factories in the past, and I don't begrudge the funds to this new group. But is there some liquidity issue I've overlooked in my research of HSTJ?
A bit new to this pink sheet / grey sheet stuff - how will we know when HSTJ goes back to pink sheet? Still holding my shares and watching the rollercoaster effect.
Thanks for not laughing too loud at the newbie :)
I switched to Macs in the 80s, using PCs/Windows only when my job or travel forces it (visiting folks, internet cafes). I've upgraded to new Macs when it was too irresistible to avoid doing so, but never been forced to do so due to hardware failure or system problem.
There were a few virus attempts back in the OS 9 days and there are the expected holes in anything Linux-based. Compared to the constant onslaught of viruses and spywares against WIndows, though, viral problems are practically non-existent.
I've never had a problem with spyware, adware, pop-up-ware or any firewall breech. Yes, I watch for them all. I listen to my PC friends' horror stories, and realize that 1s and 0s are vulnerable to other 1s and 0s. But I don't stay up at night fretting about the latest attacks which turn their Windows machines into bowls of soup.
Re the current stream of price vs cost speculation on Apple products:
We pay more for Mac products, it's true. The way I see it, we're paying a premium for what isn't there - BSOD, security holes wide enough to build an interstate through, between-application confusion, shoddy integration, marginal hardware with short use life, and a host of other non-Mac problems. I could go on and on with that list.
That premium price doesn't begin to cover the value of time my friends have had to spend in recovering their data from PC/Windows system failures. One acquaintance likens his Windows box to his old E-type Jaguar which spent far more time in the shop than on the road, and figures his cost per mile was approximately 420% over that of his Toyota Camry. Well, I figure my cost per mile for the Macs I've owned over the last 17 years to be dramatically lower than a similar series of PCs would have been.
Our G5 and eMacs run; they run fast; they run smoothly and with consistent results; they get great mileage, and I'm willing to pay more up front for the peace of mind which comes from knowing that when I turn them on or wake it up, they will -always- work.
Over the years and progression of Macs from the Classic through Performa to the eMac and G5 we have today, I have had precisely -one- system problem which required reinstallation of the OS. That was back on System 7 and was my own fault for asking my Mac do something highly unMaclike.
Donate your PC to charity, dig into your pockets and join the Mac Pack. If you must have a scroll wheel (see previous chain of strange frothings about one-button meese), buy a different mouse or, better, a Kensington Turbo Mouse with more buttons than you have fingers to use on them.
(To be perfectly open - I do not work for Apple; I do not work for Kensington; I do not work for Microsoft or any other computer hardware or software company. I own AAPL stock among dozens of other stocks, all in companies i don't work for.)

Nice little write-up in a sidebar in this week's Newsweek - encouraging words, although that 2 billion number keeps popping up.
