Maybe they like the Beatles? (inside NINE joke) FWIW, NINE was one of my worst investments ever. Good story, loser stock. JMHO, of course.

#9: Obviously nine has survivability issues and SGI cash infusion was needed. Presumably they will have some piece of the early Visual PC that would otherwise be late or absent. The display is probably built into the MB and it is likely #9. #9 is not alone as far as graphics-cards companies with problems, I don't know that anybody ever did well in that field for a sustained period. I was lucky to have ventured into Chips& tech before it got bought out by Intel. The next earnings would have tanked it. Greg
