<< wouldnt it make sense for someone like broadcast.com to come in and grab a company like ampex. i think that they are a takeover candidate. >> Don't know if they are seeking that, Cards .....but if their skill in acquisition continues to outpace their cash flow ....I agree. Intrinsic takeover value, in my opinion, would not be sky high by any means ...but it would be a good deal higher than present levels. Just impossible to know though. Ain't it always. ( but i have often thought IBM would be a natural fit...lol).
