TGP, Midway doesn't do coin-op machines anymore. They're now only doing software for game consoles like Playstation 2, XBox, and GameCube.

Tough business Midway is in. I think the only games house that does well is Electronic Arts.

However Midway, ( the pinball and slot machine company ) pre-announced bad earnings.

I think Williams ( the pinball and slot machine company )is one of SGMA's customers. I can't find the article now, but I think I remember Williams saying they're having trouble with some of their games paying off wrong.(I can't even remember what they changed their name to. I thought it was WMA or something like that -- but I can't find them.)

And I've not been able to find the old press releases of their sales.

So -- who knows. I'm completely in the dark. I'm going to gamble and hang in there on sgma.


tgp, according to Market Research, two big customers for SGMA are NSI and Life Fitness. They have 50% of SGMA's business. Both must be private because I couldn't find a ticker for them.

Depending on the conditions of the markets, I may buy some before the 14th.
