Good luck guys; I'm out at 9 5/8.

I almost fainted this morning when I saw the stock trading at 10. I placed a sell limit at 10, but by then it had fallen back. With the tender offer at 10.10/share, I was surprised that it traded as high as it did, as I don't think anyone else wants to fight Slim for the company.

I changed my limit order to 9 5/8. Of course, after that it traded as high as 10 1/8, so if I'd had a little more patience I could have had my 10/share. Oh, well, it's only money. I'm quite happy being out at 9 5/8, rather than sitting on the stock at 5, and wondering how long it would take Halpin to drive it into the ground.

I put my CPU proceeds into ELTX.
