Hi Vincenzo,

Unless the number of outstanding shares is extremely high or low, it has little bearing on whether or not the company is a good investment.

Yes.

> Cable modems.

The topic of whether or not cable modems are a threat to MSPG's bottom line is open for debate. Some people think the cable companies will make lousy ISPs, others think that they will crush MSPG like a flea, while still others think that MSPG will benefit from cable modems. The implications of widely available high speed access (including cable and xDSL) has been discussed somewhat over on the Motley Fool's MSPG board. You might want to read what's been said there.

Good luck,
Mr Bones
