I wouldn't count on IBM either...unless it's a loan.

Brian, Pixt is Pixtech, next generation, flat screen 2mm low voltage CRT. Scalabe to 40" for TV's. Computer screens, Ariline seatback displays, Automobile dashboards, Navagation systems, Medical instruments, scientific ocilliscopes. Compay is out of R& D and in production. Major players hold stakes. MOtorolo, Raytheon, Futaba of Japan. Kaufmann fund (SMART) guys just bought 1million shares yesterday is now PIXT largest shareholder. This technology is superior to AMLCD, a $25 billion market. Their on their way. UMC of Tiawan is Fab for volume production. Pixt has a competive and comparitive advantage over Japanees AMCLD (active matrix liquid crystal dispaly). company hold 350 patents and is selling @6.00.

I wonder if IBM buying a 25% stake will be good in

Partnering with IBM on the PowerPC became the kiss of

IBM did not have much success with Microchannel or OS2/Warp.

Sure, the $1B would be nice, but . . .
