- VIGN continues to be beating out the leader BVSN in several key respects

- from 9/30/00's finl's:

- VIGN's revs went from $77 mill to $110 mill; a 43% gain; vs $95 to $120 mill, or 26% gain for BVSN
- in fact, VIGN may overtake BVSN in revs in 4Q00
- excluding goodwill, BVSN was profitable by $17 mill; vs VIGN's losses; so BVSN wins here
- BVSN's a/r shot up from $26 to $92 mill; vs VIGN's steady going from $106 to $105 mill
- VIGN's - total liabils now $200 mill; but BVSN's only $114 mill; so advantage to BVSN
- VIGN's 225 mill shs o/s fully dilluted; vs BVSN's 266 mil

Bottom line: - BVSN's @ 31 5/8; vs only 23 3/8 for VIGN; so given VIGN better growht & soon to have higher revs; I can't justify the differences in stock price; & I argue the better value is VIGN by far
