DH, I'm much more excited about the 6 gen chip than I am about a split. The 300 hr. standby time should help shorten ADI's "Warhol period". My conjecture is that the only remedy to Q's extremely high volatility will be to increase the float. The Houses will benefit from increased trading volume. Additionally, Q will surely request authorization for more shares than necessary to support a split. Once the momentum players react to a split announcement by increasing Q's valuation, those extra shares will be inexpensive script when Q wants to make an acquisition. jmho uf
