David, Would appreciate any thoughts on the "PEG" ratio analysis. That ratio is wrong. :) I don't have the slightest idea how anyone could come up with a PEG ratio as low as 1.5. Using a ratio in which the growth component is the period beginning with trailing earnings (excluding one-time charges) and ending with 2000 earnings, the ratio is 3.3. Using a ratio in which the growth component is five-year estimates, the ratio is 2.5. --Mike Buckley

Hi David: I see that Mike has answered your Peg ratio question. I decided to sell some covered calls and buy some puts. I did this on only a portion of my long position as I believe in this company long term. FWIW. I sold the Jan 140 calls and was able to buy the Jan 110 puts with the proceeds. I tried to do the same with March but never filled. As much as I love the company I think that something is likely to occur with Y2K that will turn the sentiment from greed to fear. Also the P & F short term indicators have all turned down and the longer term NYSEBP is very close and will probably reverse too. regards, Ray
