Steven-

Yes, there are some very sharp knives in this drawer. I am glad they choose to sharpen themselves out here in the open where we can all learn a thing or two. I'd buy the second and third rounds also.

[This is way way OT]

While going through some old papers last night, I found a James J. Cramer (another JJC?) column titled "Unconventional Wisdom" from the October 1994 Forbes. Excerpt:

"The [computer] group's ugly duckling, Dell Computer, is my bet to emerge as a swan this October. ...Dell's management has also gotten serious about all the financial shenanigans inflicted on the Street. Expect nothing but good plain-vanilla numbers going forward."

(Dell was at 60 cents then)

I have never owned Dell, but that struck me as one heck of a good call. Of course the same column recommended Apple, which has taken a round trip to nowhere and back.

Best regards to all.
