The points that ACT raises in its release are all very
positive. My initial reaction is very bullish. I looked
at CMCI once-upon-a-long-time-ago, but never invested.

+ This will diversify their customer base.
+ This will diversify their management base.
+ This will make them more diversified geographically.
* Hudson MA
* Atlanta GA
* Dublin Ireland
* Corinth MS
* Santa Clara CA
* Hermosillo Mexico
* Huntsville AL
* Taipei Taiwan
+ This gives ACT their much-sought-after West Coast presence.
+ Nearly 1 million sq feet of combined capacity.
+ Common equipment (easier to integrate operations).
+ It provides ACT an entree to volume contract manufacturing
(rather than only having their boutique-style manufacturing).

Only obvious downside is that it won't be accretive until CY2000.
