re: DELL and Sears I'm not sure about the numbers from Dell, how their sales break down to consumer/business pc's, but I don't know anyone who has bought a Dell lately. All of my "self employed" associates who do multimedia of some sort, build their own pc's or use Mac's, the rest of my computer friends are savey enough to not buy a system out of a box, and just about everybody who upgrades does it piece by piece. They might be selling a good deal to some businesses, but I got to think the average consumer will only be buying 1 of these every few years. I sure as heck wouldn't buy one.
Had to get a humidifier for a sick one over here, so I went to Walmart today. It was packed with back to schoolers, about 10 lines filled w/ 3 or 4 people each. I'm not a fan of W-Mart, its a quick fix, had 3 brands of humidifiers, all made in China, ended up with something from Honeywell, LOL. Its a college town here, Go Gators!, plus all the elementary and high schools, means a lot back to school buying. Stopped buy my local in and out taco joint, packed as well, asked about the biz, he said they've been slammed all week. You know the Domino's pizza who delivers to my place is the busiest in the wolrd! :0
Next time I order a death wheel I'll ask the manager how things have been.
Here's a couple that have pooped onto my radar - VIBC - regional bank, 52w/k high, nice weekly chart

CCK - containers - huge float, but hay, everyone needs packaging.
