<<>>HIGH SPEED ACCESS CORP
>> E TRADE Securities, Inc. ..... 75,000
Okay, let's see... from now on we have a lottery. A hot IPO comes up on ETrade! Everyone and his mother gets an email alert or reads about it in the evening newspaper. Two hour window opens and only 15% of the ETrade customer base is willing to gamble on those nutty internut IPOs. ETrade is allocated 75,000 shares for the masses or 100 shares to 750 people.
Let's see... 750 divided by 150,000 = SOL!
Go buy a real lottery ticket. Odds aren't much worse!
