I try to forget unhappy memories like that. I think it was Norton, which got taken over by a Chinese company. During the offer period I got caught up with other things and neglected to mail the acceptance. About three or four years later they sent me a cheque for my shares at what (I think) was the takeover price. I do remember it was the same price as I paid for the shares originally. It wasn't the worst thing in the world, but I missed the opportunity to use that money for a few years until they did the compulsory acquisition.
Now I see Datt is trying to organise something. If they'd done that a week ago things might be a lot different. Good luck to anyone who goes down that path. I'm still happy to be out of this now.
