>>>>and come up with approximately $40 million in licensing fees between now and 2000. This is using the minimum 5% per chip figure where with the C6X I've heard as high as 30%. It's also using a conservative 12.5 million xDSL shipments.

Let's play a numbers guessing game... If AMTX makes $40 million
in licensing between 1998 and 2000 (3 years) and assuming
ADSL growth is about 100% on average during those four years
(BTW STEVE G--I think your assumptions on growth are seriously
low--most anyone who has looked at the market believes that
the growth will be in the 100-200% range whenever ADSL
'takes off' 1998? 1999? 2000--who knows.) and assuming
R&D expenditures are 25 % of total outlays, AMTX must be
expecting to have revenues of at least 160 million during those
three years 30 million--1998, 60 million--1999, 120 million--2000 would be about
right w/out any earnings at all.

Right now AMTX market cap is 230 million--not out
of line for next years sales of 40-60 million.

Its interesting to play these guessing games but as bill c.
has said, nobody really knows.
