CAPS All-Star FoolSolo elaborates on the bull case:

[L]ooking at their fundamentals I am very impressed with their value and growth. They have about $378M in cash, very minimal debt, and great cash flow over $50M per quarter. Virtually all the growth and earnings indicators on my screen are lit up, so I have no reservations calling this a growth company, with good value and low risk to reward ratio. I will build a position in this company.
