Oh Larry, be very, very careful here. First of all, Steve was talking about selling puts, which is meant by "writing" puts on S3. Make sure you read up on options trading before jumping in on S3's. I love this stock and am a long-time holder, but S3 options have been quite risky every since the stock price's downturn from its highs in September/October. I'm not saying don't get involved with options, but just be sure you know everything there is to know about options before diving in just because of a stock that's moving recently or because of someone's recommendation.

Steve, I do like your writing puts idea though - just sounds like Larry is making a mistake, which is trading options without really knowing the nature of options.

I'm very excited about the recent S3 news. Very much along the same lines when it introduced 3D in November of '95. This company really knows what the industry will be needing down the road. It has done so time and time again. Good luck to all you S3ers and hopefully, here's to a fun ride in the next few months.

Chris
