>>The news is out, ERTS is now a Internut stock

Hey, don't forget GTIS and its "wild wild web" purchase! What a joke that was....and it didn't do squat for the stock. But hey, ERTS is different and nobody hates ERTS like the Street hated/hates GT.

the servers

Not good. Why can't they wise up and use some sort of authentication like HL/TFC? Nobody complained and people actually bought the damn game (of course the game was fantastic as well).

I was at Best Buy yesterday and noticed that the shelves were stocked with Toy Story 2. I haven't read any reviews; has anyone heard anything? It is shaping up to be a big retail holiday season, that is, if half the merchandise I saw stacked all over the mall is sold. I can't believe how many computers, dvd players, tv's, etc., I saw at BB alone. Many of the other retailers were similarly stocked with merchandise in the aisles (e.g., Macy's). Let's hope we pick up some of those sales (too bad SoF is not going to make it, the buzz seems to be picking up for the game).

Speaking of holiday sales....I've heard that Q3 is gold! I don't know what that does for the bottom line, but it will certainly boost revenues for the quarter.
