RE:SIG-I told the thread 50 by year ---WHEN Dell was in the mid "30's". --I have accumulated regularly throughout this period and reported each of my actions.Nothing is as valuable as truly sound advice but when it is not appreciated it should be silenced.

Dear Sig,..Re:.OTOTOTOT Re:.I will never sell sdli LOL!!! I don't think you have to worry if you want back in. Don't you think around Feb. 6, next FOMC, that we'll get a great buying opportunity? <gg> I love the technology and the fact that demand is far outstripping capacity to supply makes these stocks even more compelling. But I would buy just because of the technology. Also it's hard to stay in when there's a 76% gain in 5 weeks on the table! (as of yesterday at $219!!)<ggg> What to do! Also, no one ever went broke by taking a profit, anyway you're still way ahead in JDSU & Q! Plus lots of others if I remember. <g> It's also nice to see the MMs want own Dell for end of year portfolio display. Merry Christmas and best wishes for a fabulous New Year to you and Jan. I really appreciate all your funny stories during the year.<g> Best, Lee
