Eric: I recall you sold MCRE to get 3COM and one other stock. Do you think 3COMs stock easing has influenced
your overall view of the high-tech market ? For example, the market hasn't any real evidence (yet) that
consumer software is going to be significantly affected by the Asian turmoil. BTW: I didn't do it but today I
considered selling all my MCRE, taking the tax loss against earlier profits, and loading up on MACR $ 8.

But I held MCRE as I really like their products and heck,
if the CEO has a tad under 1 mill shares you'd think he could
do something to help his (our) stock ? Any thoughts on a
buy-back ? Who would decide that, is it a board decision ?
Can the CEO just show up for work one day and order someone to buy
400,000 shares with company money ?

BTW (#2): I like to watch MCRE daily big trades at
fast.quote.com

Anyway, what do you make of what appears to me as less frequent large block trades ?
