Thanks for the article ... Does anyone know what's the margin is on these DVD drives? The price has come down quite a bit from $379 to $299 retail for the Encore kit. I hope that's because manufacturing costs have come down and CREAF doesn't have to sacrifice margin for market share. How about margin on the Voodoo II card? I'd think it's much higher ... From the past 2 quarters, Creative's gross margin has been around 32.9% ... hopefully Q3's gross margin will be higher since these new products have better margin. Also this is the first quarter that Cambridge's and Ensoniq's revenues will be counted. I was trying to figure out how much these two acquisitions will add to revenues but couldn't find it anywhere. Does anyone know? TNH
