Pounding the Table on SNE.

Why Sony (SNE.N) Has Been RFI's "Singlest Best Idea in Japan"

Even before the AMP/vMac issue was being seriously discussed, albeit sub rosa,
Sony (SNE.N) was "our single best idea in Japan." It still is. Sony has been a
favorite of ours for a long time. Here's the last missive we sent out to subscribers
on Sony. It's from 15 Feb 99.

Golden Convergence Table Pounding: Sony Corporation (SNE.N)

RFI's Apple Recon Week of 15 Feb 99

We don't care if the entire Japanese economy implodes and shares of Sony
Corporation (SNE.N) plummet to 100 Yen. We're going to pound the table on Sony
as being inside "Golden Convergence Ground Zero" until either our hands are a
bloody pulp or the callouses get calcified and become as hard as bone. We'll keep
pounding the table until people either pay attention or get caught flat-footed by
subsequent events and developments. Yes, we're serious on this issue.

Sony has a vested interest in Golden Convergence, whether Apple cooperates or
not. Sony was an early licensee of FireWire / 1394 and recognized the latent
potential of QuickTime. It's no accident that Sony has ambitious plans and
intentions vis-a-vis FireWire and has even incorporated 1394 compatibility in its
computers. And it's no accident that Sony also has ambitious plans to incorporate
FireWire all across it's line (where applicable) and is seriously weighing either
cohabitating or commiting even further to QuickTime and its future incarnations and
versions.

We've been laying out the case for all of this for a long time. And it was no accident
on our part for relying heavily on Sony products in the Golden Convergence Special
Report sample schematic. Gee. Who has the most FireWire devices and appliances,
with more to come? No Betamax this time.

Bottom line?:

Yes. We're going to pound, and keep pounding, the table on Sony Corporation
(SNE.N) no matter what happens to the Japanese markets and economy. It's that
important.

05 Mar 99 Addendum:

Since that update Sony has unveiled the PlayStation 2 specifications as well as
announcing its partnership with Toshiba. Shares of both companies spiked on the
news.

More will be discussed in the next installment of the RFI Report on MacWEEK.
