Yes, we're only what, a point from an all-time closing high? Which is as it should be with this lineup and the kind of momentum that is about to hit the sector. It's also possible that the newest Rugrats PSX game is sneaking onto shelves today. No word from IR as to when Rugrats 64 shipped to Europe and when Search for Reptar becomes a $20 Playstation Classic. Anyone else want to try? Todd, thanks for the GBC breakdown. I don't know what numbers I'd put on it but I have to think that Rugrats outsells WWF. The first Rugrats GBC did so much better than WWF entries from AKLM. A&E's biography show will be featuring wrestlers all next week. How did they know we were launching our first WWF titles then? Marc

A matter of definition, I suppose. For me it's when a company goes past the half billion in market cap. Right now, THQI is at the #8 spot in my database and is the smallest of the 'large caps'. Way behind Nintendo (141.7 bn), of course, and only a tenth of ERTS (5.2 bn.) but its ratios seem more attractive. It seems to be diversifying its title mix, too, which will make it less vulnerable over the long haul. All in all (according to my definition) an innovative pick for the large stocks.
