BUY Media Logic Inc. (TST)

   I may get a DESI(tm) buy signal on this stock after the market close
today.  If I do, I will send another buy alert tonight.  A green light for
Monday will spell a DESI(tm) buy signal on Media Logic, and this appears
very likely.
   Unlike Germantown Savings Bank (Vol.1 #92, yesterday), I am very very
enthusiastic about Media Logic.  So enthusiastic that I have put $10,900 of
my own money into it, split evenly over my two accounts.  A typical buy for
me is around $4,000.  This is a strong buy!
   The market gave a delayed reaction to the Sep 30 earnings report (see
below).  The earnings report came out Tuesday, and the strong market reaction
occurred yesterday (Thursday), when the stock shot up 2 3/8 points to close
at 25 3/8 on three times average daily volume.  That's a 10% rise in one
day!
   Due to technical difficulties, I am unable to include a stock chart with
this buy alert, so I will attempt to describe it:  This stock has gone almost
straight up all year.  I bought this rocket ship today at 27 1/2.  Yesterday's
close was 25 3/8.  In early January of this year, the stock was at 2 1/8.
That's right, this stock has made a ten-fold move since January!
   Therefore, the stock must be too expensive, right?  Wrong!  Earnings and
sales have been growing even faster, and the stock is still cheap at a very
modest 25 times earnings.  That's about what the S&P 500 is selling for --
and while 25 times earnings may be expensive for the mature companies in the
S&P 500, it is cheap for an emerging small company with explosive sales and
earnings growth.
   Let's take a look at the last four quarters.  I've shown earnings and
sales comparisons on a difference basis as well as on a percentage basis.
On a difference basis, an acceleration in the sales and earnings growth rate
is apparent.  On any basis, these numbers are spectacular:

	Quarter
	Ended         Sales($mil)              Earnings-per-share
	-----    ---------------------      ------------------------
	Sep 30   4.6 vs 2.0 +135% +2.6      0.42 vs 0.10  +320% +.32
	Jun 30   3.8 vs 1.4 +180% +2.4      0.32 vs 0.01 +3100% +.31
	Mar 31   3.0 vs 1.7  +73% +1.3      0.26 vs 0.05  +420% +.21
	Dec 31   2.3 vs 1.0 +130% +1.3      0.12 vs -.13   n/a  +.25

   This growth is a fairly recent phenomenon for Media Logic.  The company
reported red ink in each of the years 1987 through 1990.
   Media Logic ranks in the top 5% of all stocks in terms of 5-year earnings-
per-share growth, and in the top 1% in terms of relative strength, according
to Investor's Business Daily.
   Media Logic manufactures and sells precision computer-based test equipment
used to measure recording performance and quality of computer disks and
magnetic tape cartridges.
