BancBoston Robertson Stephens says it expects more than 320 established and high-growth companies in the technology sector at the tech conference, the third in two months for this city. See related story.

Others that might shed light on new or developing products include C-Cube Microsytems Inc. (CUBE), which makes integrated circuits that compress and decompress digital images and video. Investors and analysts are mixed on C-Cube chips, which have short life cycles in the rapildy evolving market for consumer electronics.

As of 12/31/98, C-Cube had shipped around 2.7-2.8M CVD/SVCD chips. About 1M of those chips shipped before Q4. 1.7-1.8M in Q4. If the mix is staying 50/50% with VCD 2.0, they shipped another 1M by mid Feb. That puts C-Cube over 2.7M SVCD chips in the same time frame. I think SVCD is over 50% of the mix this Q, which would be a higher number, but not double the ESS number that we saw last year. Can you say Shinco?
