Richard, thanks for the psm link. It's interesting that reviews sometimes have little to do with sales. I not only think of Nitro, but also Eidos' Deathtrap Dungeon which scored poorly yet hit #10 in PSX sales. When I intimated that Inland has been a good investment, I meant simply that THQ benefited by banking 25% of whatever kind of royalty/profit sharing that Inland was due for phenomenal Nitro sales. I told you where to go to find the answer to your questions. I narrowed it down to six or so posts. Go find them. I don't remember who it was exactly. Just that a trusted poster talked to a THQ exec about it. The exec passed along the info. If one shorted based simply on loss of WCW license then the rationale seems weaker now considering strong sales of Quest, does it not? WCW is supposed to be only 30-40% of sales this quarter. But you knew that, right? Btw, you never answered my question a few weeks ago about when you planned to cover. Good luck, Marc
