I don't know what to make of it, or even how LWSN even got on his radar (perhaps he wants to own part of the cloud!) For more, see http://blog.lawsonguru.co...25/the-icahn-effect/

It will make for some interesting reading over the summer. Icahn is known for turning companies around to make better profit.
