>I find that if I don't have at least some enthusiasm for a company and its products, I have a hard time sinking tens of thousands of dollars into its stock; you went on to say: >Mostly they are in the high-tech area, which I believe I know something about. I contend that your current success and/or enjoyment of investing is not a result of "enthusiasm", but a result of the fact that you "know something about" the high-tech area. If you didn't know anything about the high-tech area, your enthusiasm would be based on anecdotes and the opinion of others. What is upsetting to me is when I see/hear people spouting "facts" about a technology, company or stock that are purely emotional or based on some sort of emotional or ego-driven commitment. When you see that kind of discussion taking over in groups of investors discussing a particuar stock/company, you are seeing the next Novell, Wang, Lotus, etc. That has not happened here (SUNW) yet, but in my short time (2-months) it seems to have grown significantly. Whaddyathink?
