The growth rate of DGIT is quite impressive. For December 31, 2007 I estimate DGIT will have revenues of $98 million and earnings per share of $.80.

The space is gaining quite a bit of traction especially now that larger companies have taken to advertising and marketing in multi-media formats. No longer is it advisable to advertise in just one medium. This has opened the door for DG Fast Channel as its solutions provide a greater efficiency to its customers versus the a la carte solution that has been used.

DG Fast Channel can take its solutions and provide its services on a global basis.

DG Fast Channel has the opportunity to be a top 25 stock for the NEXT 25 years.
