Re: Limit orders...I used to do it just based on the day's trading range. If for instance in late morning there was a range of 6-8 points, even if it was near the high I'd place a good for the day limit order close to the low, and often get it. Since daytraders were riding it up and down anyway. I don' tknow why I stopped doing that--perhaps deterred by the anxiety of checking back in to see if I got it? I always did get it. Should have done that with GMST & I didn't. Think I'll start doing that again.

Frank,

Have you given any consideration to the potential competitive threat Cisco faces from Lucent? With Lucents' recent acquisition of INS, I expect they are going to become much more competitive on the data side of the house (voice always being their strong suit). In addition, Lucent also has some great technological potential sitting within Bell Labs.
