Thanks for the SWAG on quarterly numbers.

I think that the COGS estimate of 3.9 is too high. I think it's typical for COGS to be in the 15-20% of revenue range. For example, 3DO's revenue/unit is approx. $15-20, unit costs are usually about $3.00 per unit. If revenues are 10M, COGS wouldn't be more than 1.5 to 2M...assuming the product is on CD-ROM media (not cartridge).

Good estimate on July 9. You were within 10% of the actual loss number.
