Hey timbur, >Unfortunately, key members of the Starcraft team left Blizzard >recently. I wonder if it had anything to do with their stock options >being worth less than they should... I doubt it. Most likely they either are starting their own company, or got a much better offer. Software people are in very high demand right now, and if they are good, they are litteraly worth their weight in GOLD. With Blizzard being as sucessful as it is I would not be surprised to see them at a new software company. I'm not sure how many people work at Blizzard, I hope that their exit will not affect their buisness to profoundly. They are on a role. Blizzard is the oposite of Sierra, Sierra has changed significantly in the past several years. The quality and inovation is stagnate, I wonder if they are even profitable??? Maybe the innovators left Sierra and went to Blizzard ;-) I have been watching CD for about 6 months now, I bought it for the first time a few days ago for $15.75/share. I plan on holding for a while, Stochastics tells me this is a bargain. Good luck to all. Regards, Kurtis
