Rhet: No, I presented as a small business owner. Is it possible you misread the letter and it's $49 for the first month or for setup? He denied it's possible you got an offer of $49 a month. If you did, I'll say I'm your other office, and I'll sign up for it.

Irish Paddy: Thanks for the info. MM's are Market Makers and they make the markets in the Over The Counter stocks. They are reputed to have considerable control over stock price and the spread: the difference between bid and ask price. I believe they do pocket the spread. I don't know if the manipulate the stock prices as much as is often suggested on the SI threads.

Sam: Size is complicated, so much so that I may not be saying this correctly. Sometimes it's 100 and sometimes 1000 (or sometimes 1000 and sometimes 10000) depending on the float or the exchange. And it means the opposite it seems because the MMs are buying and selling not us, the customers. MM buys from us the seller and sells to us the buyer.

Roy: Re: the Airborne problem, I do have the tracking number and called twice and Apple's supervisor called. They don't know where it is but it hasn't gotten to NY yet. Two excuses: weather and understaffing. They got a lot of packages, too many to deal with. If it shows up tomorrow they'll bring it, but if not, Monday at earliest. They say they have no idea where it is. I don't pay for it; Apple does. Apple probably won't claim for the delay because no one seems to be in charge of this at Apple: at least no one I can find!
