Like CUBE, I gave up looking at the fundamentals of ZRAN a while ago, and just decided to forget about both stocks until the digital revolution begins to occur with gusto (which by your own estimation is 2000 and beyond).

So I didn't look at the PE, I suppose I meant it looks cheap compared to where I bought it. It's only a small position (and getting smaller!!!), hardly worth closing unless ZRAN goes to zero, which I think is unlikely. Do I think it is a good time to buy more? Probably not until they begin to turn around their earnings.

At some point, however, the techs should turn around, and a rising tide raises all boats, even those with inflated PEs. Don't ask me when that will happen though.

P/E for Zoran ---- Currently this stocks not
making any money at all which makes its P/E infinite.
One shouldn't buy this stock on earnings expectations
(and future analyst expectations are just guesses). One
should buy a company like this for revenue growth and future
revenue growth. Unfortunately, there is no current revenue
growth, year to year sucks. The only hope is a big ramp-up.
