CDs can be had for .25 to .50 in bulk and store 650M. Flash is a long way from being competitive and will not replace CDs until the price per meg of storage is a lot closer. CD recorders are coming down in price all the time and more people are purchasing them. Heck, some big name PCs come with CD recorders already installed. Flash is great and is probably going to be a lot bigger in the future when prices come down a lot more.

I would surely love S3 to get to 50, but it isn't going to happen this Christmas. 15 would be a more realistic target. S3 is not respected on the street and its stock price will not reflect such a high valuation. To get to such a high valuation, I believe S3 would have to buy or merge with Nvidia, 3DFX, and Creative, so that they would basically have very little competition in the graphics and sound card markets. But i don't think that is likely. If S3 could merge with either Nvidia or 3DFX, now that would be a coup worth $20 - $25 a share. I am waiting to see what happens with Nvidia, 3DFX, and Creative. I don't think that consolidation and mergers are done yet for these companies. Hopefully S3 will be included.
