So Mandriva has "Solid Business Plans" - funny because the link says
nothing about that. I suppose that *YOU* are an expert on business
plans. Do many business plans come throught that dorm room of yours
where you dwell 24/7?  I'd venture to bet that you've never seen a
business plan so you are in absolutely zero position to postulate
whether one is solid or not.

So just how solid is Mandriva's business plan? Here's some info on
what the financial markets think of Mandriva's business plan:

http://www.euronext.com/trader/advancedmarket/advancedmarket-2594-EN-FR0004159382.html;jsessionid=A6B3DA4073252109884EAF3599E57566.7DDC2DEB68C772E567CB34B83C?chartSet=summarized_historical&selectedMep=1&instrumentType=1&displayType=SUMMARIZED_MARKET&idInstrument=22099


HINT - The share price of Mandriva is down 80% in the past 12 months.
This time last year the stock price was 5 euro/share. Today it's a
penny stock.

That's one "solid" business model.
