Subject: Our old friend get real money ...

Hi:
I do not know how this will be taken here and what it means for the future of
CSTAL or as portent of this tiny industry as an all, but anyway I found the
following piece of information in one of my voyages trought Internet in one of
those sleepy afternoons. In fact it is  not a "new" properly speaking; almost is
a piece of old history, but there is some indecence into it that I think you
should know:


  "...In order to finance the acquisition -of Oxford Software- and to support
the continued development of the group, Purple raised from Quester, New Media
Spark and Emerging Technologies £5.4 million of new private equity..."


Not bad money, IMHO. Not bad for just a piece of chess junk and some bridge and
poker games with the old face of a egiptian actor and gambler. So this guy Chris
not only indulges himself appearing here behind different names just to bother
us, but at the same time he becomes rich. I protest.
