The posts that say nothing but simply provide URLs get under my skin. I want to know what you think. Whatever the clowns who work for the Washington Post and other media entities can do, you can do better. Let's get some original thinking. The short sellers have had a great ride. I believe that the recent positive action can be attributed to short covering and options speculation. At 112, the stock is now below a former support level of 115. Because of the recent volatility, I'm fairly confident that 115 will not be a resistance point. Will it go to its old highs? I'm not sure, but it should come close. The level of pessimism is excellent, as evidenced by the URL only postings, alluded to earlier, so the stock is going up. You should be advised that I'm long the stock.

GalSal, thanks for the link. I have always been one to believe that consumers generally choose an option between convenience and Cost. Currently DSL and Cable both have a comparitive quality, and I believe there is room for both. However there are a lot more phone lines out there and I think in the long run that phone access using DSL will have an advantage, as it is easier to switch to than cable from dial up, and there already are a lot more phone lines out there. Can anyone provide some information regarding using digital service over cable, I am sure that would be much faster than DSL, and can carry more information leading to greater useability for online applications such as videophones, and and live video feed, does anyone have some input? Chad

Sal I really appreciate the news article. You are living proof that a thread is for the exchange of information of all kinds. The article is ahead of it's time informational wise but will not be for long. As more people realize the huge benefits of DSL over cable as well as the price difference the information contained in it will become common knowledge. I have the mentioned company on my watch list now thanks to your post. I looks very promising. moneycentral.msn.com Very excellent! Vendit
