Actually I feel it is now time to nominate myself as a moron. And I have evidence. I purchased my first pc in 1986. It was a Dell and it cost $6,000 (for all you snickering gen-xers or gen-yers thats what the damn things cost back then, go ask mommy). Recently I checked the split adjusted price that Dell was selling for back then. After throwing up I then calculated how many shares of Dell I could have purchased with that $6,000. The nice lady at the suicide prevention hot line said it might help put this ugly incident behind me if I publicly acknowledged the magnitude of this blunder. If in 1986 I had purchased Dell instead of a Dell not only would I have avoided a life robbing internet addiction but that $6,000 would now be techstocks.com Boy do I belong here.
