Pat, Thanks for the post and link. It is kind of nice to hear that a stock that you own is considered a potentially attractive takeover candidate. I have owned DMIC for a year (ouch) and bought AFCI and XYLN in December. All three were on the screening list you posted. The only problem with takeovers being that you never get to see the little guys blossom to their full potential. On the other hand, I would be happy to see AFCI acquired if it means owning part of a larger fish "on the cheap" or an instant return on my investment. Ausdauer
