I'm not following Red Hat's stock, and I'm not really a stocks person,
but I just looked at their investor pages, and they say they lost $3.6
million with a *revenue* of $5.4 million in the last reported
quarter. What the hell was this tiny company doing with a $22 billion
(137x10^6 outstanding stock at 160 each) market capitalization? Or $8
billion, for that matter, which is where they stand today?

Bubble bubble toil and trouble....
