Chip, now you're 0 for 2. Asian crisis is already factored into the stock price. Despite that, CREAF still beat estimates (which never chnaged since Asian thing blew up), and will next quarter, too.

And maybe you should listen to the conference call. I know you haven't by most of your comments.

CREAF can't meet demand in the US for its graphics cards. They hadn't gone after OEM contracts before because they didn't feel that they had the capacity. Now they are. So even though Asia sales are lower, they are being absorbed by the strong demand in the US and Europe. So there really isn't that much of an effect from Asia at all.

There really is no point in arguing with you. However, in closing, I will ask you: How many times have you heard a company's CEO say that their stock is trading at a "ridiculously low p/e?"

Has anybody out there can share info on VideoCam II?
How it compare to other competitor's products? I went
to Creaf web site did some search. In spec section,
it seems videocam II connects to parallel port not
USB port. USB has better performance through-put or
parallel is much easy to build and Creaf can make more
money on using parallel port.

When CREAF was going up you didn't have this Asia crisis

I don't want to become involved in this debate but must point out that CREAF hit its all-time high of over $29 in mid-November, well into the Asian "crisis " and after the October "chash." However probably everyone agrees with your statement

markets can't stand uncertainty

but probably not your conclusion that inevitably

until some of these things ... are resolved this stock will continue to go down

Chip, so you seem like a pretty "cheap" guy. Were you surprised when CREAF was in the high 20s? Come on, "FESS UP", CREAF surprised you right?

How's that "FREE" Zack feed? Keep on posting, I like reading your negativity, it lets me know when the all knowing Chip is unsure of himself but doesn't want anyone to know.

Just like Gomer Pyle, surprise, surprise, surprise...

:o)

Hi All,

Just bought 1000 shares of CREAF last week. I like this company because it's trading at extremely discount right now (still is at $20) but most of all I like the direction this company is heading.

Hunter I don't know you or what your position in CREAF is but will you put your money where mouth is --go short on CREAF monday.

PEACE
