RE: Your Questions >>> What is an Edhead? <<< <g>, "EdHeads" is my nickname for the heads of SyQuest's executive management team, (Edward Marinaro, Chairman, and Edwin Harper, President and CEO. >>> What is an USB...I read the press release...and I still need a laywoman's translation. <<< USB (Universal Serial Bus) is a hardware interface for low-speed peripherals such as the keyboard, mouse, joystick, scanner, printer and telephony devices. >>> I have looked, and I couldn't find ANY calls or puts on SYQT. I also asked my cousin ( a broker ) and he said there were none. So..how is it being shorted? <<< Options on SYQT have not been available for quite some time, however "shorting" does not normally refer to the trading of options. It refers to to the selling of borrowed stock with the intention of buying it back (covering) and replacing it, hopefully at a lower price. >>> Is SYQT doing any work in the DVD - TV area? I heard a rumor on a plane that it was doing something with macrovision...had a difficult time eavesdropping.... <<< I cannot confirm any of this. Regards - Dale |
