Besides CAPA, OPTI is another.

I'm not recommending these stocks. I haven't looked at them much, really. I'm just verifying that they are "below-cash stocks with positive operating earnings."

OPTI had:

cash $58 M on 12/31/00.
Market cap $40 M
No LT debt
Operating income +$9 M for 2000.

Now at a quick glance it appears that they got a lucky break when they sold a big $13 million license in Q1. Otherwise Operating Income would have been negative. But hey, GAAP is GAAP, and it counts as positive operating income for the purpose of disproving the claim that <<try as you may, N,but you won't find any below cash stocks that have positive operating earnings. >>
