Not only that, but CREAF has a patent infringement suit against Aureal and they are firmly convinced they will win. And isn't Aureal running on razor thin margins with little financial resources to draw on?

BTW, what's with todays last minute dump, which took it from positive to negative? Seems like someone just doesn't want CREAF to show any kind of buy signal or positive momentum. The haters of this stock are truly determined to keep the downside momentum going.

Jon:

How much CPU horsepower would it take to deliver the kind of sound users want?

Would 100 MHz worth of a Pentium II do the trick? Would 200 MHz?

I'm not saying that today's CPUs are well-equipped to handle great sound. And I'm not saying that feeding off the CPU is the "architectural ideal".

On the other hand, we all know that a year from now, the 400 MHz Pentium II will be at or near the low-end of the market, and a year from then 600 MHz or 800 Mhz will be the low end.

Taking 100 MHz from these higher numbers will become a lower percentage of CPU.

At some point, doesn't it make sense to go this route?
