SI does have a searching feature, but it only goes back 30 days or so. You can also look at individual profiles to see recent posts, but it only goes back a very short period as well, though I don't know if the limit is based on time or number of posts, or both.

Actually, I simply relied on an old-fashioned tool, memory. I remember the old discussion from 1996 as if they were yesterday, so I just went back to the start and clicked forward to late 1996. With only 950 post or so it wasn't too hard to find what I was looking for since I knew the approximate time. Try that on the Intel thread and you could be searching forever though. <VBG>

I do note one major change from 1996, though. In 1996 you were saying that given their monopoly situation and order backlog that they were a good company, just a bit ahead of themselves, and that you might re-enter at a lower price. Today you are saying that given increased competition from UTEK, the lack of a backlog, pushouts, etc, that you really don't want to own them at all, and that you don't even buy the prospect of 20% growth. Isn't that it?
