The way we are moving, we'd be breaking the 15.5~16.5 barrier pretty soon and I am not sure how to play that yet. Does anyone have any ideas?

I know you don't like the description "long term", but this is where "long term" really counts. As a trader I would dump the stock on any weakness or release of good news as the stock appears to be getting slightly overbought. As a long term shareholder, I see the possibility for 20% of the OEM market next year. The puts the numbers at about $4 EPS and a $40 share price with a 10 P/E.

I can tell you this. I was a long term holder with Iomega way before it was a glimmer in the Fool's eye. The stock went through many gyrations up and down but I cleared a 10 bagger with that one. Many of my friends that traded the stock got nowhere near those returns but they also didn't take the risks. I figured my risk was minimized by my knowledge of the stock. Turned out I was right.

If you truly feel that 3dfx will be one of the primary OEM's in 1999 then I wouldn't waste my time with these daily fluctuations.
