>> A few months back I placed an order to buy NTAP calls in my Fidelity cash account but got an error message that I couldn't buy them on margin. After some thought I realized that buying calls on margin was probably not such a good idea.

Unless you're in an ira account, I can assure you that Fidelity allows buying derivatives on margin. Perhaps there was some other reason your order was rejected. I'd suggest you check with Fidelity customer service.
