Glenn, Amat bought my etec shares. I'm betting 50-50 that Nvls buys Sfam in the year 2000. It's cold here. >ETEC SYSTEMS INC(ETEC) Bid: 74 1/8 BidSize: 32 Open: 73 7/8 Ask: 74 1/4 AskSize: 10 Close: 49 7/8 Last: 74 3/16 High: 75 3/4 Div.: 0.00 Change: +24 5/16 Low: 72 Yield: 0.00 A.High: 55 P/E: 554.02 Volume: 1649400 A.Low: 21 5/8 EPS: -0.42 Market :NASDAQ NM Tick: Down

>> I hope you are correct. << Obviously I'm not this week! I hope plenty of people are getting short MSFT. We will need short covering plus fantastic results if our options are going to have a chance in hell. I've seen it before though, MSFT trades weak ahead of earnings and then pops up 15 points after fantastic numbers. I have utmost confidence in the numbers plus the forward outlook, but 15 points plus 103 = only 118. I need to see 122 or higher to come out ok on these options. BTW, as ugly as MSFT looks right now (down 3 1/2), I wouldn't be surprised to see it turn around and finish positive by the close.
