How do you define "Leading"? By stock performance? How's Oracle done? How's Compaq done? How's 3COM done? Let's see...Below are total returns for each security from June 17, 1996 to June 14, 1999 INTC 225% ORCL 106% CPQ 135% MSFT 435% HWP 92% IBM 389% COMS (42%) AMD 29% NSM 34% TXN 429% AOL 2121% S&P500 101% Conclusion: Intel has doen better than most companies, worse than several notable names. Congratulations to anyone who picked all the winners. Lets do this again in six months and see what it looks like. regards, jh
