>> Re: Y2K stocks. I made my views on these stocks very clear last year. They have been flack stocks pretty much from the beginning <<

-Agreed, although take a look at MRN on the London market - has de-emphasised Y2K, and is enjoying the COBOL renaissance.

*AV* - you hit the nail right on the head. All of the high flying Y2K stocks of the past year or two look to be dead ducks these days. Even the supposedly "righteous" stocks have done just as you state, they have changed their focus, direction, and some have tried to become .com type companies.

In retrospect, it would have been better to have not gotten involved in them in the first place, even though we are net profitable.
