Thean, I will be loading up too, but I agree with you about the pricing. I just hope they don't price it below that level. Jim

Thean, I e-mailed OPMR this morning on their earning report date. They said Apr 25th. Still awaiting word on whether it is before the market open (which I would expect) or after the close. Have you given any thought to their system install totals for the past quarter? I would expect it to be quite good given Y2K is over and the backlog they have. I'm sure their customers are anxious to get these units in place given the tight labor market. The stock has been holding up quite well (so far) given the sour nasdaq market. Hopefully that a good indication of things to come. Jim
