I am hoping that we all are correct in investing in Ariba. If we aren't, I'm blaming you personally. No, just kidding. For what it's worth, I have 92% of my retirement account in ARBA, basis split-adjusted $35. That sounds insane but I'm 30 years old and can stand a few fluctuations before age 59 1/2. I wouldn't pick ARBA unless I felt comfortable tuning out completely from the stock market, going to Mars, and coming back five years later. Ariba's the kind of company I'd feel comfortable leaving alone for a while (unlike Iomega, which I might have made 300% on in a month, but I'd be terrified of not watching it daily).
