James, I am one of the luckier one, my last purchase price is around $20, average price is around $14.00 + interest. But what about those who bought THQI over $28.00??? Is all we can say is "Too bad". If the management is doing an adequate job to promote the company in the equity market. THQI should trade at no less than 40s now and we can still proudly say the stock is undervalued!!! Not to mentioned THQI once had hit a bottom of $9.xx, the stock was merely under institution manipulation. I know it is unavoidable but management certainly has the ability and the responsibility to reduce volatility by promoting the company to more institutions. You don't wait for others to respect, you have to earn the respect from others. >> So you have 17 quarters of successive positive earnings and an 1800% increase in sharevalue...and a rather positive outlook forward, but it's down 25% off its high so you come to the conclusion that Farrell doesn't care enough about the shareholders? << If a stock goes up 1000% in one day and drops only 90% the next day, it is back to square 1. Best of Lucks Andy

Personally, I avoid companies which appear to be in the business of selling their stock, as opposed to selling their products. THQ's management has done an outstanding job of selling the Company's products, as is evidenced by 17 consecutive quarters of positive earnings comparisons. In addition, they are using the money to make shrewd and timely acquisitions. As I said before, BF is laying the foundation for an empire. Long term investors will be rewarded. Those who expect this company to start hyping its stock for the benefit of short term traders will be frustrated.

Well said James. I haven't owned this stock as long as some here, but it has been an interesting experience owning a stock that is such the object of attention by individual investors. Seems to me (from Andy and others comments) that most of the "No" votes are simple emotional votes expressing frustration with the stock price. If so, it is the wrong place to express that frustration. I can respect and understand voting "No" on options if you think that it is the right business decision as part owner of this company. I can't understand voting no simply because other investors won't pay you more for your stock. Kory
