Well...when the changes have just occured within months...and the economy is tanking to the point of moderatre recession. The benefits of these changes just aren't going to be realized, are they?

It's like screwing in a new, more efficient lightbulb, but not flicking the switch.

Their entire consumer base, and their entire company. Chapter 11 is quickly being considered by everyone (including some of our politicians) as a highway to Chapter 7. That'll help matters.........

What's your reasoning behind that statement?? What deep-rooted problems? The 'lackluster' management was responsible for those great new products...

I'm sure they expected questions...they didn't expect such uninformed, biased resistance to a LOAN.
