Alex, sorry for the potshot on your ATVI holdings. But your potshots over here seem less based on analysis than your own feelings that the good guys in video games are not making any cash, while dumb ol' THQ is.

No way are there 50,000,000 Usenet users. Figure is ridiculous.

<<There's 57,000 gropus and growing daily, >>

A lot of them are jokes or contain no posts (at least on my server).

<<If you spent some time on the newsgroups >>

I spend too much time on them. You can check out my Usenet posts on Deja if you like. I use them every day. But most computer users don't--even a lot of my friends here in Berkeley who are working in cutting-edge software development.

<< 'd be worried to if the
company i owned is spending 2 million bucks to market a
bad game. >>

I'm a little worried about Quest sales, but a little worry is healthy in owning a stock. On the 2 million: I believe Nintendo is footing half of it. That's what we get with THQ: Farrell. That's why THQ makes money. Farrell had the boring idea of running THQ as a business.

Alex: THQ could earn 3 bucks/share this year. We're sitting on a PE of 9 on that estimate. Don't fight the Force, Alex.
