"accretive acqusition like SIGM"
Are they making money?

"Then they could get better margins for a while on DVD products"
CUBE's margins are above 50% while SIGM is below 30%

"No need to let that cash sit around"
IMO there are better aquisitions to be made in markets that have higher margins and/or higher growth rates than the dying PC MPEG Hardware decoder market.

I have no position in SIGM, don't like their balance sheet, and I don't like the way the company is run.
I'm not trying to instill fear just a reality check.
