Re: SGI purchase of Alias:Wavefront.

For the record, Alias had revenues of $55 million in the fiscal year
prior to the merger while Wavefront had revenues of $27.7 million.
Prior to the consumation of the merger, Alias had revenues of
$17.6 million in the first fiscal quarter of '96, an increase of 89% over the prior year. I may be mistaken but these figures tend to
suggest that SGI may not have necessarily overpaid for these
acquisitions; moreover, if one values the cost of these stock-for-stock acquisitions as of November 1997 rather than June 1995, the cost is likely to be significantly less than than the figure cited--I fail to see any reason why the cost cannot be
measured in terms of the present situation rather than that
existing two-and-a-half years ago.
