Currently worth $12-16 but I believe that I have just uncovered something new that just might put this stock into exponential growth that you talk about.

Lasermaster (NASDAQ:LMTS) is one of RGFX's main competitors. They are the only other company that sells printers and software. Their success (to the tune of $93 million in FY96) was their electrostatic DisplayMaker Express.

Check out the stats on this baby -

lasermaster.com

100 sqare feet per hour in "high speed mode"
They just cut the price from $69,900 to $49,900 whcih is exactly the same as the P5000's price.

Why would ANYONE buy this printer if they can get a P5000 which is 3.6x faster?
Lasermaster ( lasermaster.com ) had over 10% of the market in FY96 and I see the P5000 and P1000 taking at least half of their marketshare by the end of the year.

Lets do some calculations!

Raster Graphics market share in '96 = 4.4%
P5000 market share stolen from Lasermaster = 5% (Conservative!)

Raster Graphics 1998 market share = 9.4%
1998 Projected market = $1.9 billion

Raster Graphics revenue in 1998 = $179 million
Raster Graphics profit assuming margins of 8.4% = $15 million = $1.50 eps

Assuming a P/E of 45 (45=market growth) we would have a price of 67.5.

Again, these are all conservative estimates! Margins WILL improve if we see volume like this and BTW, Lasermaster is almost out of cash!
