Amen, Leigh. Keep the faith.
Re. the StreetAdvisor....I saw an article in the Fort Worth Star Telegram about this guy, a student at TCU. He got 2.35 million from investors to start this site; he's supposedly brilliant. Guess that remains to be seen :0)
P.S. (OT) Did you see the Rangers get bludgeoned last night? Soooo sad!

Sorry if this has been posted already. Should be a better day for Dell tomorrow. Tech Report: CSFB raises PC growth projections


By Brenon Daly, CBS MarketWatch
NEW YORK (CBS.MW) -- Citing lower prices and a rebound in Asia, Credit Suisse First Boston ratcheted up on Wednesday its projection for PC growth this year to 19.2 percent from 16 percent.

"The first half of the year roared," said Michael Kwatinetz, who heads the CSFB's technology research group. He added year 2000 concerns, which have knocked software companies for a loop, may actually be "mild positive" for PC sales.

The project increase compares to 15.4 percent growth last year and 16.5 percent in 1997.

Kwatinetz says a resurgence in orders from Asia, as well as lower prices and rebates from Internet Service Providers will lift growth. As a way to increase the number of subscribers, ISPs have been offering lower-priced PCs bundled with their productions.

Investors will get a glimpse into PC sector on Thursday, as Dell (DELL) is set to meet with Wall Street analysts. Kwatinetz said he expected an "upbeat" get-together.

He didn't expect Dell to echo weakness that Hewlett-Packard reported in its analyst's meeting last week. The computer giant (HWP) told analysts that it expects sales growth to come at the low end of the previously set 10 to 13 percent range

(OT) Leigh,
Thank the Lord that he spared those young men. I know it will be hard getting over that experience, though. But we do know WHO is in control, and yes, I'm also glad we are on the same team. Let's remember the BIG picture...the biggest one of ALL!

Reminds me of a joke our preacher told Sunday...
It seems a wealthy stockbroker died and showed up at the Pearly GAtes with a sack of gold. He asked Saint Peter if he could come in with his bundle. When Saint Peter looked inside the sack, he said, "Sure, I guess so." After the man went inside, St.Pete scratched his head and said to himself..."Now why does he want to bring that sack of pavement in here???"

Cheers,Leigh, to you and all us faithful long term-ers... and here's to a great analyst meeting tomorrow.
Let's just remember that if Dell does warn that we might be affected by Taiwan, IT WON'T BE THE END OF THEWORLD...
WE'VE lived through that before and it will be okay sooner or later! (hopefully sooner) :))
