I'm considering making an investment in Affymetrix but don't understand their recent eBioscience acquisition. Could someone please explain how this acquisition benefits Affymetrix? At first glance it doesn't seem to make much sense.

Is Affy at risk of being
Is Affy at risk of being removed from NASDAQ because if their latest "bad luck" of giving away all their cash and not getting anything strategic for it? Can they stay afloat with no cash left? There was potential when they had cash and not there seems to be no hope of a future. Where does it go from here? Can they ride out another 10% drop (or worse) if it happens again? What's the real scoop?

Layoffs started today. There
Layoffs started today. There will be 100 people whacked in total. CFO and EVP forced out into "retirement." The company is f*cked. Revenue for Q4 is horrible. Core Affy business grew only 1% and eBio only 5%. ILMN beat Wall Street estimates with "strong array sales." Affy is completely irrelevant. This is history folks, we get to watch a "market-making" company crash and, very shortly, burn to death before our eyes! Bravo SF, bravo!!!

No, their antibodies contain melamine, as well as beef by-products and plenty of preservatives. See the ingredient labels.

I've looked at eBio extensively and the deal would be a death sentence foe Affy.

Makes sense if Affy is considering getting into protein arrays or diagnostics---which they've indicated they are. Question is whether this organization could really address the diagnostics market.

Illumina recently purchased
Illumina recently purchased BlueGnome for one fourth the cost of Affy's acquisition of eBio. BlueGnome makes much greater sense to compliment Affy's portfolio than eBio. Frank should be embarrassed for throwing away over $300 million for an antibody company. Seems Affy likes helping Illumina with their poor acquisitions.
