hey Skeeter, define PE
are you looking at life backwards?
are you looking between your toes?
are you looking in front of you?

backward trailing PE's are a loser's view
current PE get half the picture right (half looking forward)
forward PE has the right idea, but with estimated numbers

still trading at reasonable PE verus FY2k earnings
what is your dim view of y2k earnings?????

freakin' pe of 300? Look ahead my friend...which countless people fail to do. Q will make in excess of $4 EPS within the next 12 months...
Let's see...
170 divided by 4...
let me get my fingers out...
GEEE...that's a PE of 42...
Wow? And for triple digit growth. Hmmm....

Hi, Skeeter. This was a great day for the Q shorts, but I'd be cautious about banking on a down trend. Q makes MU look like a club fighter.
