These guysare stealing slot machine market all over the place from IGT. This is big business. New casinos, more slots constantly, plus all old ones need upgrades.

WMS makes the best slot games by far.

IGT just got hammered on its quarterly earnings, and they are the big dog in town. WMS results for the next few quarters will be no different in this recession economy, they are in the same boat. Stock has peaked and will move back down to $25.00

WMS is a growing company in a flat industry. The industry leader IGT is losing marketshare to WMS. WMS is increasing the base of leased machines (which generate long term profits at the expense of short term sales) and taking the leadership role in new technology. Walk a casino and look at he games that are beining played.

Maybe the one company managed well enough to withstand this economy in the market it is in. We shall see.
