Kelly: Chuckle. Can't claim membership in 100% or 200% club, but pretty happy with my Q LEAPS too. And back in the old old days of May 1998 (the month after Mike claims the Q tornado started) I started my telecom equip stock gorilla game in Mike Buckley's Fool's Library thread with the Q as half the portfolio. For those interested here is where that stands after about a year and one half:

techstocks.com

And if you look, you will see that if I had been less conservative and had the Q at 100% instead of 50% that gorilla game would have been up more than 5 times instead of 3 times.

So I for one do not fault anyone for going 100% Q. If I were to have only one stock (I have others) that one stock would be the Q and I would have no trouble sleeping at night.
