. . . any thoughts for those who were there in stratospheric times? Sure. You win some, you lose some. How about. . . Just hold on, it'll recover, wait till next quarter! Or maybe, Weeeeeee!!! Hahahaha!!! Pissing my money away!!! Yeehoo!!! Honestly, I've never lost a nickle in the stock market I didn't laugh about. I may go broke, but I'll still be happy. Especially since my wife doesn't know about it. ;-)

Yeah I must be the luckiest bastard in the world... Still waiting for my transfer of funds before I can buy more. I would have bought at anything under 16 if I had the money to do so. I kept thinking to myself, what if it goes up? Now I'm starting to get greedy and thinking, how low can it go? I'm the first one to be critical about 3dfx's management, but I think you guys are losing perspective because you're pissed about the stock price. The only thing we know for sure is that 3dfx's first promise to the public was for October. I know their original internal date was for late August, but I think they've added a couple of major things on to the original product. (I'm not sure about this but I've heard the same information from 3 sources now, so I'm starting to believe it.) If this is true, it may just be management making the decision that the current product line is going so well that they can afford to improve the product to ensure a superior product. I don't know that this is the case. I also don't know that it isn't the case. Until I hear one way or the other I wouldn't get my panties in a bunch. Pat

I've got no problem with what you said. The share price has gotten to the point where I'm sitting up a little straighter. :0) I do think that my post is consistent with what I thought might happen; that is, if the NAZ went to 2600; then 11 looked like a bottom. Of course, the NAZ broke 2600 and a reassessment is in order....how much lower on the NAZ and is 11 the bottom? Certainly 10 is more probable then it was a short time ago. Is 10 the right entry? There was never very much volume at previous 10s and looking at the NAZ...there doesn't seem to be any signals that we're at a bottom here, the next points seems to be at 2500 and 2450 but I'd like to see some panic selling (a hundred point drop on the NAZ would be nice)to signal an end before I jump back in. If that happens would 10 hold? With the current trend, I would doubt it. In which case 9 looks good with a downside to 8 and a very reasonable upside to 16. The numbers look good but I would like to see some sign that the correction is over. But I think we would agree the time is close. Best Regards, Jim Regards, Jim
