Combined financials after subtracting revenue double-counting...

I assume that with the merger, additional options have been/will be issued. 24M or 25M produces the same 9 cent loss anyway. 27% gross margin is quite amazing given that both STB and 3dfx were unloading legacy products. I think we can safely expect low 30's going forward. High-end products later may push this up to mid or high 30's. It's reassuring that total combined gross expense dollars should remain flat according to the conference call. 35 million quarterly. GM in the thirties. Everything looks good to me. Expecting 120M next quarter over 111M this quarter. Low expectations if you ask me. This is a good thing. Room for surprise. Pat
