Crossy, I am not an expert here,but like companies with strong insider buying,good management and a reason to turn around. I looked at some of them and came up with DMIC and CAMP as the best of the bunch,others probably have differing opinions. Here is another article about satellite its going to kick some cable ass. multichannel.com Survey: 9M Could Buy DBS in 2000 By JOE ESTRELLA July 26, 1999 Las Vegas -- As many as 9 million consumers may purchase new home-satellite systems next year, according to research released last week at the Satellite Broadcasting & Communications Association convention here. That could mean a "second wave" of new subscribers for direct-broadcast satellite systems, which are generating good word-of-mouth these days thanks to plunging equipment costs, researchers said. The study was conducted by Boston-based research firm The Yankee Group, working with the SBCA. During the fourth quarter of 1998 and the first quarter of 1999, surveyors asked 1,000 consumers nationwide how likely they were to buy satellite systems in the next year. A total of 9 percent said they were likely or somewhat likely to purchase satellite systems, which translates to millions of potential new DBS subscribers, Yankee Group director of media and entertainment strategies Bruce Leichtman said. "That's 8 million or 9 million people who are on the fence, who are prepared to buy DBS," he added. "That's not to say they're going to do that over the next 12 months. But it does say that there's still ripe market out there." Hiram
