JOHN--You Know Alot--Please Tell Me What Earnings Will Be.

Stocks eventually sell on PE and EARNINGS. You told us alot
of good things about QUST, but you forgot to mention anything
about EARNINGS.

1. What is the current PE?
2. What are earnings estimates for 1998. Please figure the
PE for the year ending 1998.
3. MFS was a jewel just like GWST. However, it went from
$20 to $50 on the IPO run-up, then fell to $15 for two years.
It was bought out at $35(e). MFS NEVER got back to $50 after
3 to 4 years, but it was bigger and mightier than ever.
WHY....NO/LITTLE EARNINGS....VERY HIGH PE.
4. For QUST to support $60...how will it do it with no earnings.
Simply waiting for 2 to 3 years for QWST to build their
infrastructure with a PE =160, will lead to a slow decline.
People get tired of waiting and get no RETURN for doing so.

Thank You
