Anything is possible in business today.

Samsung offered $6 Bln, that's $26/share to buy Sandisk and they said no thanks. If nothing else, it shows how cash fat Sammy is, and this was last Sept, just before our last SHM. I found wanabe's article interesting, in that guidence of sales going up, and the PPS climbing 5.5%. People are still buying CE gadgets, replacing old appliances for more energy efficient ones, and taking advantage of utility rebates, gov't tax credits etc. IMO, a company like Samsung with it's wide range of products is perfectly positioned to capatalize on this sluggish economy as it recovers, and the proof is they are doing so before hand. Granted, sales dropped sharply, but any kind of good news today is eventually rewarded.

What will Samsung do before Markman, after Markman...who knows? I keep thinking the two companies are a perfect fit, be it a partnership, a merger, a buyout...whatever.

I do miss many posters, be they the positive types, or those who push back with questions, as you refer to them as realists. Want to know a secret? They are over at the OT board...LOL!!

I value everyone's opinions as long as they are presented in a respectful, non-personal manner. To me, that's what a discussion forum is all about.

Here's hoping EDIG will puts out some PR's over the next few months that has a positive effect.
