Here's an idea for some upwardly mobile person at 3Com with balls (virtual of course, male or female will do)... why not create a software support contract and sell it from your division. You gets lots of hits, and fair amount of money and no support headaches. At this point all we want is access to the code, not your deadheads or bad hod music. If you start generating revenue with no visible increase in expenses you will look like gold to the bean counters (assuming of course my comments about intentionally losing money are completely off-base) and you will likely be promoted and showered with stock options (ouch) and generally be a hero. You'll likely get fan mail from this list and be revered as a god by some. Not a bad turn of events for no investment, don't you think?
