OK I see you have indirect answers to your question, here is the direct one: Go to www.cboe.com The farthest out highest I could find was: YQJAT, Qcom, 500 for Jan of '02. It costs around 180 right now, or $18000 for one contract (100 shares in case you dont know) Or, to GET money instead of SPENDING money (but with less upside possible) you could sell 1 put, '02Jan Qcomm 500 and get 137 1/2 or so, or $13,700 for one contract. I had two puts I sold expire worthless last week : so if I get $8000 for a sold put and the q is not at or above that price on that expiration date I'd have to buy it but is usually is above so I didnt have to do anything and I keep the $8000 I got.
