How long has ZE been without a CEO? Any roumors that the CEO may come from a LGE? Is the board of directors looking prudentlyout side? Have they taken any hits criticisms? Are they vested well in ZE stock? Someone earlier said ZE should be trading 2-3 soon.
Is he talking smoke? The heavy price tag of ZE HDTV can only appeal to the wealthy. IE government, Business, athlete(baseball player) As much
as I like the concept in my mind I can't justify spending 5k to watch a clearer picture when I need to wear glasses.

"...therefore they must know what they are doing."

I'm not 100% confident of that. I think ZE is in deep trouble. One hopes they are at least aware of that as well.

On another note, I can't quite agree with the apparent consensus in this discussion that the "Zenith" brand is a goldmine and alone it's worth billions. My experience has indicated otherwise: in the last year or so all I've ever heard or overheard from other consumers and even dealers is that Zenith is the brand to avoid. It's undeniable that there is at least some such sentiment in the consumer electronics marketplace.

So what is Zenith doing to address that?

And whatever happened to the $10 million national TV campaign, the first in 5 years? Did it ever happen? (I don't watch TV :-)
