I don't 99 will see a re-run. Look for CREAF to go down not up. What future does it really have?

DVD... not much money in this since the only thing CREAF has is the dxr2 card and ALL cpus NOW can do this in software. DVD is a cheap addon soon. dxr2 card is DOA soon.

Sound... High end maybe for the year but with chips running @1000mhz in 2000 what will most people do with the speed??? I'm betting if 300mhz is fast for most 1000mhz w/sound from the CPU will be HOT. Hell the chip set in a few months can run all basic sound forget about the cpu. Sound is DOA... SBL will be a low cash card soon. 5.1 speaker sound will be CHEAP soon.

Video... same thing 2d is free 3d is the money but with cards at $80-150 how much life can be in this area... again that 1000mhz CPU will just sit doing NOTHING for most people. Not much growth if any again DOA for a higher stock price

speakers... creaf thinks growth is to cut the price of speaker and sell more. only thing is you get NO GROWTH... I see CREAF as doing the same in 99 as it did in 97 and 98... nothing. DOA for growth in 99.

MP3 player and SIMS vapor ware... All I can say is CREAF didn't get this out for Xmas and if it makes it for the next one good... only thing is so will everone else... Growth is DOA. If we see it creaf will make a low end ver. and again have NO growth, thats what creaf does best no growth.

Anything else creaf has going for it I'd love to hear... I'll bet you CREAF blows it : ) or at best it will sell well but be a no growth product with little cash made from it. This is what the history tells us CREAF is good at... treading water.
