Leo, this looks like a total mass.
Where did you get 150-180 times?

ZAKS:

Consensus Estimates
This Quarter ( - 98) -0.10
This Fiscal Year (Dec - 98) 0.14
Next Fiscal Year (Dec - 99) 0.40

So instead of 150-180 should be 52.5

Now let see what we will come with MSFT

Consensus Estimates
This Quarter ( - 98) 0.87
This Fiscal Year (Jun - 98) 3.28
Next Fiscal Year (Jun - 99) 3.96

160/3.96=43.3

What do we have here another absurd?
No, market packed with money and these ratios becoming the standard.
You can't calculate growth rate Q by Q because it can not reflect seasonal fluctuations in revenue.
And besides how in a world it's possible to come up to conclusion that this business has failed just by results of one quarter. Now they released delayed products and revenue from them will improve their fiscal situation. By the way, 3 company they bought last year should add something.
Leo, look at your charts, specifically check your STOCH setup on weekly chart and you will see that this baby is ready to explode.
Most likely this will happen around 1st. Q earnings release.
I, myself in no way an eager of their products and use IE-4.0 with pleasure, but daytrade NSCP most of my time.
Regards, Michael.
