Andy,
you fell victim to Buffet's masterful PR handling... in early 1996 Buffet began accumulating silver in world markets, eventually gathering 20% of world supply... in mid-1997 he ALLOWED word to leak out that he has this mother lode position... the market responded like a salivating hormone driven teen, driving silver over $7, WHERE BUFFET UNLOADED FOR A FEW BILLION PROFIT

ever since, silver has come down... in about one year, you will hear that Buffet has been out of silver for many many months

moral of the story -- WHEN YOU HEAR ABOUT BUFFET, HE BE GONE

His list of huge huge winners like CocaCola are endless.

I assume that by adding MPRS's titles, THQI's revenue stream would be more stable ( with many products ) and less affected by hit game flucuations. It becomes more industry and platform dependent ala ERTS. At the same time overhead becomes more of a load.

I will rely on Farrell's pecuniary tendencies " to throw nickels around like they are manhole covers".
