Ynot, software on chips is still in the distant future. . .whereas set-top boxes are being rolled out this summer across America. Just after we bought DCLK at 69 you said it was dumping. . .and there are more. . . While I enjoy your cynical view of the world, I would prefer that you back up further predictions with an argument as to WHY you believe your view is correct. This will help us all to follow the train of thought that leads to such statements. If I were to say pork bellies will rise. . . I have a 50 percent chance of being correct. . . that is terrible. We are looking for an accuracy rate more like 90 to 95 percent here. And if I don't give an argument as to why pork bellies are going up. . .most here would simply think I was a bit nuts for saying it. But some would believe that I have expertise to share in that area. The truth is that I know absolutely NOTHING about pork bellies, nor do I care to learn about them at this time. So I would NEVER even THINK about commenting on that subject or any other that I am not STRONG in my convictions over. Thanks, Rande Is
