Dennis, Don't see CAVR as an acquisition for Deswell as it would stray from their core business. Don't know if it would work for Behringer. Only benefit I could see for them would be to get another position in US market, but they can always go after the customers without buying the company. It appears Deswell prefers to expand rather than acquire. There are many plastic extrusion companies they could have gotten instead of buying the machines from Toshiba. Acquiring companies or interests in companies can bring benefits, but it can also bring the problems that caused the company to be buyable. I can only see them acquiring or merging if it benefits existing operation. I still like the idea of Deswell buying control of Namtai with Namtai's cash. Eliminate a competitor, get the under utilized facilities, improve customer list, etc. They could buy it and have substantial monies left over. Ron
