I want to say to all the GTW fans out there that I apologize to you in advance for what I am about to write. You see I use to be a GTW... "LONG ALL THE WAY" guy until about 6 months ago. After the ups & downs with this stock I decided to bite the bullet and sell GTW and buy DELL. I can't tell how relieved I am at that decision. Its like popping a big pimple, or cutting a huge fart. The pressure is off.
Trust me and get out of GTW. I mean, Look at HWP. When the numbers start to go south, they go south. No matter how hard you try to cheer them up, they still go south. Get out while you can. This stock is only good for a "buy out" play. If IBM comes to the rescue, then you will win. I would not count on it if I were you.

Dell on the other hand has discovered e-commerce. They will not stop at selling just "boxes" over the net. They will begin selling all the little things that made HWP famous. The "high margin" stuff that people need to operate the "fun box" that the PC is turning into.

The GTW move into retail outlets is a last ditch move in desperation.
They are dying. Sorry, They are dying. Its sad to watch, but life goes on. Be part of it. Throw your roses into the sea and salute.

Then MOVE ON. DWW II
