FORE's annual sales ended in march were $.632B. Purchased for $4.5B.
4.5/.632 = 7.12 times sales.

FORE got bought at 6.2 times annual sales.

This could be the last chance to load up COMS. If it get bought, one would believe it should be in the 45-50 range or more. COMS is the last "pretty girl" in the networking area, and there is no question there could be more than one suitor. I really regret that I did not load up FORE in the last week or so when people were speculating that FORE could be bought.
