Ausdauer, re: "M-Systems Revenues Triple over 1999"

OK .. they partnered with Saifun and sold a lot of noodles. Please tell me why I should dump the last of my money market dollars into "M".

Craig

Saifun Recipe -- Genuine CHINESE CHICKEN SALAD (no lettuce and no junky wantons):

Buy two chicken breasts at Kentucky Fried or at Popeyes. Remove crust and skin and shread the meat. Chop up a few green onions (length-wise and thin on the green part; x-wise and thin on the white).

Heat a cup of peanut oil in a frying pan or Wok and toss in the Saifun noodles about an ounce at a time. Flip, wait and remove as soon as they start to brown (about 30 seconds a side).

Toss crispy Saifun noodles into a brown paper bag. When full, add chopped scallions, chicken, garlic salt and/or Lawry's Seasoning Salt to taste. When the bad has soaked up the excess oil, dump noodles into a bowl to serve.

Toss with bottled Japanese toasted sesame seeds or -- better yet -- make toasted sesame seeds from scratch. It took a few times to get it all right but, a long time ago, I cooked this for my first serious girlfriend. A fine result, considering that I had to cook breakfast too ;-)

Olympus Exhibits I-Mode-Based Remote Control System
for Digital Camera

October 24, 2000 (TOKYO) -- At World PC Expo 2000, which ended Oct. 21, Olympus
Optical Co., Ltd. displayed a trial photo-taking/distribution system employing remote
operation of a digital camera by mobile phone or personal handyphone system.

The system enables an i-mode mobile phone
or other Internet-capable mobile phones to
operate a digital camera by remote control to
take images and then have these images
shown on the phone display.

The entire system consists of a digital camera
to be placed far away, a server to control the
overall operation, a hard disk drive for storing
image data and a mobile phone as a user
terminal.

Data communication between the digital
camera and the server is possible through
LAN and ISDN networks, as well as a mobile
telecommunication network using a PHS or
mobile phone. An advantage of employing
the mobile telecommunication network is to
save construction labor which cabled
communication needs, according to an
Olympus official.

When a user selects and sends out the
"shooting" command out of the i-mode menu
to the server, the server establishes a
connection to the outlying digital camera,
operates it to take images and saves these
images as JPEG data. Afterwards, the server
edits and tunes the stored images to a size
suitable for browsing by i-mode, and then
sends data to the i-mode phone.

To receive images after sending the shooting
command, it requires about 20 seconds in use
as an i-mode PHS phone for data
communication with the digital camera and
about 60 minutes in use as an i-mode mobile
phone. The stored images are available for
attaching to e-mails and uploading to Web
sites.

Olympus expects this system to be used
under circumstances that need be monitored
remotely such as restaurants, construction
sites and expressways. The company also suggests that the system is useful for regular
shooting at scenic sites to be uploaded to a Web site to show hourly changes.

Aus - Why no reaction tothe fantastic performance and future predicted performance seems to be a growing question and also seems to me to be the unwritten question in amny other posts here.

Stagerring that with results like these and the stock is 25% lower than it was three weeks or so ago.

Looks to me that its a good sign of a bear market and if this is what we got with those results imagine what might have happened with a less good performance.

Its LTB&H that is the issue. The stock was at $160. That was a once in a lifetime opportunity but so many have been schooloed in LTB&H for "good companies with great fundamentals" that many just sat there mesmerized and still are.

Now with the knowledge of hindsight we know that March saw levels that will probably never be reached again for many stocks. My guess is that our shocked reaction to the lack of movement of the stock price after this fabulous quarter is a slow and painful recognition that the market has had its summer days and that we are heading off into a dark winter no matter how well the company performs.

Best regards,
