TSQD 2nd-10Q

From the "Selling and Marketing Expenses" section of 10-Q:

sec.yahoo.com

Due to numerous uncertainties and marketing requirements of having a new catalog, "the Company believes the launch of the Net Direct catalog will have a negative impact on the profitability of the Company in 1998."

So, marketing expenses may be higher, and they appear cautious about NetDirect, even though they say it has potential market greater than DTP Direct.

The sales in computers were not iMacs, they were :

"Computer system sales increased 9.1% from the same quarter a year ago which was attributed to increases of 167% in Macintosh system sales and 1073% in PC/Wintel computer systems sales partially offset by a decrease in Macintosh clone system sales of 43%. PC/Wintel computer system sales comprised 10% of all computer system sales in the second quarter of 1998 compared to 1% in the same period of 1997"

So iMacs may still contribute to a healthier computer systems sales figure for next quarter. If NetDirect did better than expected, we may get a nice surprise.

Digital River, in this market environment of Internet-mania, COULD SUDDENLY EXPLODE in price. TSQD would likely show a much larger % increase. My favorite Internet-related stocks include DRIV, EBAY, YHOO, QCSC and INFERENCE (INFR).
