One of the news reports on PS2 included a kid who bought a PS2 and was riding home on his bike when he was mugged and the PS2 stolen from him. Sony better give him a new one free or I will be really mad.

Glenn: You certainly deserve the congrats for hanging in longer and stronger than just about anyone.

Well, I this is fun. I remember when we all used to post ten times as many messages when Rambus went up two points in a day. Man, how times have changed.

Hi Glenn,

"We must all remember not to gloat."

on a more serious note, I was reading an article yesterday (TSC?), in which they described the RMBS as one of THE all time great short time squeezes. Apart from some hedge funds, there were a lot of techies involved, who were either passionately for it or vehemently against it.
A lot of these little guys got severely hurt or even ruined.
We should feel sincerely sorry for them.

You may pick on Don Green for example all you wish, but IMO he is a very savvy guy, but with a different investment style. He wrote time and time again, that he would never short RMBS, that it was too dangerous. He sure got that one right.
