Todd, Wow. If you thought your estimate was high, mine is higher than yours, (within 10%). However, it is good to see that we both understand the current guidance and analysts' estimates are BS. I'd love to take a gander at your spreadsheet :) Also, regarding turnarounds in the industry, I have some speculative money on Acclaim. I think they are beginning to realize what it takes to succeed in this business. Given that about purchased about 25% below it's current level, I'm only looking for another 20-30% this year. Thanks, Vic PS- 3DO has some "critically acclaimed" titles. I put the quotes around critically acclaimed because just like in the movie business, the "critically acclaimed" films are great flicks but they don't seem to make any money. This is what happened with Uprising. I think next-gen gave it five stars and it sold something like 40,000 units. :0 I think 3DO is a buy if it ever gets back to the $ 2 - 2.50 level. They have something on the order of 1.25 - 1.50 in cash.
