Thanks for the mature reply. You gave me some things to think about which I would like to respond to after I can digest it.

But I have one question for you which will give you a little more insight to my thought process here. Do you really need a cell phone the size of a pack of matches?

And no, I'm not assuming everyone invested in dot coms. But putting too much of one's portfolio in speculative stocks, regardless of the sector is a recipe for disaster.

EDIT: BTW I was not immune to this either. In the second quarter of the year, I was buying on dips too. Not until August did I finally clean out my long positions and short them with a vengence.
