RE: Toshiba leaves desktop computer business - Read Why!

They'll be concentrating on laptops and enterprise desktops now.

Here's one of the reasons that they give for faily with consumer desktops:

Another misstep was the large bet Toshiba placed on DVD, a technology that it codeveloped and saw as a differentiating technology for its home systems. But continual delays, lack of software, contractual issues and confusion in that market have made DVD the non-event of the year in PC technology, and the first half of 1998 does not look much better.

After the secondary, the price went to at least $46 1/2 after the IBM announcement. I remember "almost" selling at that point but finally sold a large part of my position later at a lower point.
