Headline: Game and Educational Software
Sales Booming as Home PCs Proliferate.

Industry At a Glance:

Strong Cash Flow? Big boys have the cash to
fund titles; smaller players seek partners.

Consolidating? A handful of big publishers
dominates and acquisitions are common.

Cyclical? Not yet. The industry hasn't really
faced a recession.

Technology? Companies must constattly use new
technology, such as 3-D technology.

Take care Stagger:

WHAT?!?! Wherefore go-eth the Stagster???

Better start the advertising campaign quickly.

WANTED: One Bear. Accountant preferred, but 5th grade math skills acceptable. Possess some degree of logic, but willing to use it irrationally. Well-developed sense of envy, along with contempt for others more successful than itself. Paws optional.

This is the first fundamental change in THQ I have seen in a long time. Need to reevaluate my position tonight :-).

<<<<< And with THAT, I remove THQI from my message board watch list. Good luck, folks.<<<<

Seemed like a classy exit to me. Let's hope we all can admit we were wrong as dramatically as SL has if it ever comes to pass that we were dead wrong.

Hope the shorts stick around for a while. We can use them to get through the $32-$33 barrier. Hopefully soon.
