Gateway's Amiga Due To Become Set-Top Box newsbytes.com 12 Jul 1999, 5:03 PM CST By Laura Randall, Newsbytes. SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA, Gateway's Amiga subsidiary [NYSE:GTW] is preparing to release a technology plan that appears to move away from the PC market and instead focus on Internet appliances and television set-top boxes. The company is holding back on the details of the plan, citing confidentiality agreements and competition. But Amiga executives seem particularly excited about a technology called AmigaObject, software that enables the integration of high-speed network transactions and communication between applications. AmigaObjects are portable and transferable across platforms. The technology will run on Linux operating systems, the company said, citing "significant performance advantages" over other operating systems. "This is just one piece of the new Amiga operating environment. It is the type of technology that will allow us to build a revolutionary computer platform," Jim Collas, Amiga's chief executive, wrote in an open letter to Amiga users earlier this month. Amiga plans to release a five- to seven-page outline of its product strategy in the next week, but Collas said it won't be for several weeks, at the World of Amiga and AmiWest shows, that the company will disclose its full technology plan and strategic partners. At these shows, Amiga also plans to unleash a new hardware unit that "will bring exciting new capabilities to the Amiga," Collas said. He declined to give more information, citing confidentiality agreements, except to say the CPU is not an X86 architecture processor. Analysts say Amiga's new and decidedly un-PC-like plans fit with Gateway's strategy to launch itself full-force into the Web business as the PC revenue market steadily declines. Gateway executive Ted Waitt recently told the Guardian Online that "Gateway has a group of people working on leveraging the Amiga assets into an appliance strategy for us." But, in response to cries of concern from Amiga users, Collas downplayed the comment on the company's Website and stressed that "this doesn't reflect a shift in our Amiga plans." Waitt continued: "I am not CEO of Gateway. I am CEO of Amiga and I don't want to confuse Gateway's plans with Amiga's. There is a significant overlap in our plans, but there is a difference in focus." Collas said Amiga still plans to forge ahead with its multimedia convergence computer, which the company says will eventually integrate with digital televisions, set-top boxes and other devices.

Again, my prediction: $.32/dil.sh. - European STB's are doing VERY well along with a nice contribution from DVD. What needs to be said about Divicom. The only possible downside is Chinese VCD - they should be flat to slightly down from Q1 (I no longer include VCD in CUBE's discounted cash flow model as the product will be essentially dead in a year and a half). Don't forget about the $.05/dil.sh. contribution from CUBE's money-market division. Conference call will be punctuated by bullish forward-looking statements. Who knows where the stock will find its new equilibrium but I would suspect well above most analyst's six month price target of $42.
