OT Guess the markets forgot the grand-daddy of them all - the market will go down in a year that the AFC wins the Super Bowl. :-)

Yes and No. Yes - Both THQI and NINE use convertible notes as financing tools. The earning release of NINE is an example of what THQI's balance sheet may look like (format only!). The Cash will increased by 60M while the liability will also increased by 60M. Because SGI converts its note to common share so Q3 diluted share of NINE will be 3.35 million more than Q2. For NINE, this probably means smaller loss per share in Q3. No - THQI is in good shape while NINE isn't. THQI is using the money to expand and improve shareholder value in the long run while NINE is using the money to keep the business survive. I suspect NINE will soon get bought out by SGI for the socket X development. aC
