That's right, ;) means it can't possibly happen :)... What can possibly happen is developers getting nervous at the mere thought of it... LOL
Actually, if you think of it, The market value of Digium can't be much yet since their core value is based on a product that can be "easily" reproduced by other developers. What is making Digium strong is its market penetration. Once stronger, it will be an attractive buy only because of its portfolio of customers. Prediction: Of course one day Digium will be bought out. C.
