Still, this baby has never been thrown out *this hard with the bathwater before. I'm about to do something I don't
normally do and that's go on margin. I don't know much
about options but I know a shitload about SUNW, and a worse case of having to buy SUNW at $28 is more appealing to me than some option expiry not going my way. I think this is a great opportunity. Taking advantage of the knowledge I have with this one equity and it's market, I'm pretty confident about a double within 6 mos, unless of course the world economic system collapses, in which case the only person with any money will be Ken.
