I wonder what they will do with the Snake Eyes line. The name ought to be worth quite a bit on the market.

The new owners probably couldn't be less
interested in the component business. The owners are letting Carl and Frank
stick around and try to prove that it can be a money-maker, but they won't
get much help or support. And the "major overhaul" of the component line for
next year? I predict a major downsizing. And if the profit levels for that
line of business aren't at least up to the other lines, it will be gone
soon.

I hope I'm wrong.

Hi Dave and All,
I have a different take on it, they make about 70% + on their brand Vs 28-35% on pro line so its simply a matter of profit dollars, if there is enough volume associated with their brand then that should be the direction of choice, otherwise not.
