Holy press coverage, Batman! Out today, the May 14 issue of Business Week; p. 130; a positively gushing article about the 3000. The reporter was at the Palladium rollout and it's clear that C='s presentation had its intended effect on him. Even the Toaster gets a paragraph. By all means read this article! (Yes, there is frank talk about C='s anemic financial results). Also, in the most recent special issue of Institutional Investor (All America Research Team Forum) Goldman Sach's Software analyst, Richard Sherlund, discusses trends for the 90s. No mention of C= but it's clear he's on the multimedia bandwagon. "As prices decline and performance improves in the 1990s, multimedia capabilities could double or triple the market for desktop computers." I'm skeptical of C='s assertion that desktop video will the the DTP of the 90s but lately more and more industry pundits seem to aggree. Note that C='s stock price is near it's all-time lows. Forward thinking people might think it's a buying opportunity. — Art
