Hey guys, I see I have been missing all the fun. Been out of state without internet access all week. After 4 years of taking it on the chin with this stock, it now looks like i will finally be rewarded and make up for all the pain and suffering of the past years. I have been feeling positive ever since the original announcement of the Savage4 and Potts joining the team. Too bad it took so long for the market to figure things out. I am guessing that S3's past of not living up to claims is what really kept things down. The market was just waiting to see if they were for real this time. I must admit and i think that most will agree with me, that we were just a little bit skeptical about all the new design wins. If we the fan club were skeptical, what do you think the street was feeling? Once you let people down a couple of times, they tend to expect that regularly from you. And it seemed to take forever for the design wins to materialize. But now they are for real with firm announcements, not just that BS that so and so OEM likes the Savage4, blah, blah. And lets not forget the foundry. That alone makes S3 worth taking over. How could S3 not now catch some other companies eye. Buy S3 and sell the foundry stake and you are left with a free graphics company. Would someone like to loan me the money so that i can buy them. I am guessing that the latest real wins are just the beginning. They will be in all the top 10 box makers within 6 months. Somebody has to be losing market share. Any one want to guess who? I can easily name a couple of desktop chip makers and a notebook chip maker. When the dust settles and S3 makes a profit in the next quarter or so, market share goes up, and margin continues up, this company should be at least at $15 a share. Unless someone gets smart and buys them out or merges with them. We have been hearing about consolidation in this industry for a couple of years. STBI and 3DFX are not the end of it, only the beginning. Maybe S3 is next. My only lament is that George isn't here to share this with us.
