[edit] Rating

I disagree with the rating, and changed it from A to B. This would not pass as a good article. A descriptive section of the company is missing, preferably including details such as company culture, marketing strategy and countries/states they are active in.--DorisHノート 17:23, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

I concur. Really, this is a horrible article, and so non-existent we should fear they'll delete it one day, because all it is is a mention of some trivial lawsuit they were in. Any company this size is in 20 lawsuits at a time. It's like having an article called "United States of America" which consists only of a biography of Elvis. --Mrcolj 22:48, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Neutrality?

I've added a POV tag because the article text does not seem at all neutral, especially in the opening paragraphs; there's language like "compelling proposition" that sounds taken from a prospectus or something. While much of it has the ring of material lifted from a corporate web site, Google searching of the site or the Internet in general for some of the distinctive language didn't turn up any copyvios so far. Nonetheless, it's far from neutral and seems incredibly booster-ish.Lawikitejana (talk) 00:13, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
