TWC, I like the programable logic group a lot and thoght Xilinx and Altera were overpriced and Actel looked interesting at the lower PE. However Xilinx and Altera have dropped so much recently, that yesterday I sold my ACTL and bought XLNX. If you go to : stock.smart.com they are showing the following PEs Altera 25 Xilinx 22 Actel 18 With Altera and Xilnx so cheap I don't think it makes sense now to buy Actel; I would recommend Xilinx as they seem to have a lot of new products, improved software, and the news and Xilinx thread seems very positive lately. Here are a few positive links to check out: www3.techstocks.com www3.techstocks.com www3.techstocks.com Good Luck,

TWC, Actel's lower PE looked interesting but now that ALTR and XLNX have dropped so much IMHO it no longer makes sense to buy Actel. Stocksmart at stock.smart.com shows PEs: ALTR 25 XLNX 22 ACTL 18 I sold my ACTL yesterday and bought XLNX. I like XLNX as they seem to have a lot of new products coming out, improved software, and the news and XLNX has been quite positive lately.
