For the record, Morgan, I've been selling puts on the following issues primarily with a October expiration:

MSFT
CNET
GMST
QCOM

These are the safest Option plays, IMHO. I have sold 100 MSFT October 85 Puts over the past 45 days, and I am deciding whether I start to cover them over the next 2-3 days. I have made a fortune on these Puts. Its safe to say, however, that this strategy embraces a *significant* amount of risk, and I certainly do not recommend this strategy for the faint of heart. And of course, you have to be able to cover!

But it works for me, at least so far <vbg>.
