James,

WRS sees every embedded market as a separate market requiring a specific set of hardware/software. By acquisitions, WRS can provide complete solutions to each market. Being "complete" means to include everything from board reference design, system integration, OS, software servicing, and applications. Completeness wasn't so critical a few years back when Tornado served low volume customers. Now WRS is going after some very high volume consumer products, being complete is a great advantage, but it gets scary when I see too many acquisitions in a row. St. Dennis better be good at integrating companies. I don't think Applied Materials was ever known for it.

Next two quarters will be critical. WRS will either take off or go bust. As you, I am betting on it to take off.
