Steve, in coming to understand your
stategy, I've decided to follow your
favorite (ATML).

Now suppose I bought it today (I
didn't, by the way) near the end of
the day at 38 5/8, which would be the
options I'd be looking at? March or May?

If May, would I sell the May 40s at 4
right away? Or wait for a price rise?

Would I buy the put now? The May 35
was going for 2 7/16 and seems high.
The upstrike call (May 45) was at 20 3/4.
Would it be time to buy either of those?

Should both longs be in place before the next
earnings ballyhoo?

I guess it's the timing questions I am most
fuzzy about.

Please forgive me, if you've answered
similiar questions a million times.

Ray
