Bill,

I agree 100%.

HP entering the UPS market was never really a big deal. And I always knew it! IMNSHO :>) .. Wish I had loads of dosh at the time as the panic made for a great buying opportunity.

People who don't really understand the UPS business (and thats pretty much everybody)assumed it meant bad news.

If HP said it was going to make tennis shoes we wouldn't call our broker yelling sell Nike! Sell Reebok!! Sell Adidas!! would we?

I can't wait for another Fortune 500 company to announce its plans to go into the UPS business (I just read a book on options. arg. arg.)

Good Luck,

Douglas

PS. Does anyone out there REALLY think a take-over is even remotely likely or would actually HELP this killer company? If so, I'd like to know what the view is like from whatever planet you're on.
