Hi Don, I agree that this stock is dead money for a while. It might be good to trade for a few points here and there but long term does not look all that promising. 1st - 3DFX, NVIDIA and Matrox control the high end graphics and have the mind share at OEM's and Retail. I was at a best buy today and heard people asking for Banshee, Voodoo 2 and TNT products. Did not see a Hercules or S3 product listed anywhere. 2nd - for mainstream - this market is controlled by Matrox and ATI. They are not about to lose this space like S3 did by not having the products OEM's want. Most of this is for motherboard designs that means getting design wins at Intel and other motherboard manufactures. I am sure that Intel is not going to be all that supportive to helping revitalize S3 now that they are down, especially when then are in the graphics market themselves. I am out now but will throw a few bucks if it goes to $2-$3. stockroach
