<<"adsp andn aplx corl cobt cpq dell doci . . .">> I was just making a quick run through this thread looking for Linux investment ideas and was very surprised to see doci(DecisionOne) mentioned. I used to work for these clowns. Never could figure out if their greatest priority was screwing the customers or the employees. Just checking I see it's now a BB penny stock. Used to be on NASDAQ so it must have been delisted since last I checked (and it's been awhile). I don't know what the Yahoo board is like now, but it used to consist solely of disgruntled ex-employees. I'd be very leery of investing in them. That said, it's a very low-priced stock and the mention of the magic "Linux" word, I suppose, could set them on a tear. If so u can be sure insiders will be unloading stock by the truckload. I'm not sure it speaks well for VaLinux' credibility that they're partnering with them. That is, if they actually are. Regards to all

yep Elv, i'm dreaming along with you ... thanks for the dreamlist and for getting 'em so nicely organized on yahoo.... can't own 'em all, oh well. CORL just did me real nice it gave a one week doubler - got in Monday & out this morning (wshew) A Nicely Nicely. corel.com & corelcity.com shows its doubleplusgoods. Mite hop back on again soon "Do It Again" -Q) how soon? A) depends if pps goes up or down Monday, of course :) ! And corel's momo was almost peanuts next to a couple those other good ones on that list! So the Linux os should be applicable for the new inexpensive internet appliances (you can't even really call'em pc's) though as i understand it they'll be working ok for some applications by utilizing remote data storage and onsite mechanics instead of installed software in the pc's down the road a piece. Linux is probably key to remote functionality needed to make the minigizmos do all the tricks they should be capable of, but really aren't just yet. Linux = Mellow Yellow (it's bound to be the very next phrase). Best 2U, Joana
