Technology Stocks : Transmeta (TMTA)-The Monster That Could Slay Intel -- Ignore unavailable to you. Want to Upgrade?

Steve, re:...Stocks like Amazon and Yahoo have always amazed me ...

Yeah, but the problem is that there was really nothing to benchmark them against and they (initially) had little competition to limit them.

As for TMTA, Intel (and even AMD) creates huge barriers to entry. While TMTA may (or may not) have some innovative ideas, its hard to believe they will be successful in getting them to market before the existing players eat their lunch, especially now that earnings once again appear relevant (thankfully).

Good luck with your short play.

Transmeta and Intel will slug it out next
year with a slew of low-powered chips
for notebooks. Transmeta plans to release
version 4.2 of its code-morphing software
that significantly reduces processor power
consumption. Transmeta also will come
out with an entirely new version of Crusoe
in 2002.

Hi Steve, looks like free-fall to me:

BTW, I think "Ron" must have bought the TMTA that you shorted. Maybe he'll be willing to let you cover at, say, $11? ;^)
