edamo, re >>.rave about dell up 19% this year<< In response to your claim that Dell is languishing I point out that it is up 19%. You characterize that as "raving". And I am sure you will never recognize that as a MISCHARACTERIZATION of what I said. You said... >>.never branded you or steven an idiot<< and... >>my absence has been solely due to getting a bit bored by the constant flaming of some idiots, who are too blind to see the obvious.<< Since Darrell and I were both involved in discussion with you before your absence how can you be surprised that we feel included in that second statement. >>who are too blind to see the obvious.<< Again a translation... Who have the unmitigated gall to actually disagree with any bit of what I say. GAAAACK

ed, thought sure you stated you bought a put (worth 15K shares) to give you insurance for your previously owned long 30K Dell shares position when Dell was in the $38 to $35 range. now you have 20K Dell shares - you sold the other 10K, I take it. but, i'm not going to hunt through all these messages to find it. nevertheless, in reply to your trading; even though my ego is blinding and failing me, i'm glad yours is in excellent working condition. You've done well. Would appreciate it if you'd let me, us know the next time you go long a stock other than Dell. As for Qualcomm; do you own it? Why? Just curious. (Why not change this never ending subject of Dell's perception? It's certainly demeaning to call Michael Dell "Micky" - why call him "Micky"? - did you know him in college? or High School? I don't know of any of Michael's friends who endearingly call him Micky - other than his wife. What is this perception problem with Michael Dell's name? How many billions does a man have to make before he earns your respect and is called by his birth name? Is calling Michael Dell "Micky" meaningless to you?)
