A pathetic tale for your consideration:

On Thursday, I planned to invest in a tech company trading below its recent high. I narrowed it down to Cognos and TDFX. I picked Cognos. After all, I figured, TDFX looked risky and might have futher to fall, in light of what happened after the Sega deal feel through.

Aaargh.

A success story for your consideration:

On the brighter side, I have made lots of $$$ on Eidos (EIDSY), the publishers of the popular Tomb Raider series of videogames. TDFX features Tomb Raider prominently in a lot of its ads, as a sort of "flagship" program showing what Voodoo can do. I think there will be a synergy of success between TDFX, maker of the leading 3d accelerator, and EIDSY, maker of the must-have killer ap for 3d-accelerated PC's.

EIDSY was recently upgraded to a buy by Volpe Brown, yet is still trading at about 25-30% below its 52-week high.
