Nihil, the "bet" I had made with Twister was a light hearted gesture, not uncommon on this thread, which, had the bet been accepted (which it was not), would have meant that Twister would have purchased and held (for one year) 100 shares of SUNW in his account using his funds. You've now converted this into some kind of convoluted, nefarious, and complex financial transaction. Moreover, you've now accused me not only of being "dumb", but "crooked." You really ought to learn the rules of etiquette and develop some manners. This matter did not even concern you. Tec.

I think SUNW is incredibly overvalued I disagree It's revenue growth is poor Wrong. Revenue growth continues to be strong. I think there is a distinct possibility that it will be overthrown when Itanium and Itanium II hits the street in volume Very doubtful. INTC has already admitted it's not a RISC-killer chip and hasn't yet planned for a large-scale release. Even if it were, Solaris would be the best O/S running on it. This will be a large server era of everyone cooperating versus SUNW. Yeah? Who?

[If he is so satisfied, why is your husband awaiting for Solaris 8. What's wrong with 7? ] He awaits Solaris 8 because he's a techy. He's never satisfied. Technology fascinates him. He wants always to learn more. All the above could be correct. I haven't asked him. For instance, we have 12 Concerti Grossi Op6 by George Frideric Handel. Why? If I hear you correctly, we could have gotten by with one disc. Why would we want the other two? ************************************** I am not a techy, nihil, so I don't know a thing about Itanium. I imagine Tech made the bet he did because he thought it would be fun. He's made bets on other threads. It seems to me that people are uptight and quick to jump on others. (It must be the market or the weather or both)Today, someone sent me a post and was flamed for doing it!!! And the information that person sent to me was correct. I guess I think we should all take a relaxation pill and laugh a little bit more. I hope you are doing well in the market. Best wishes, Mephisto
