Extremely important numbers to me. I could have covered at 9 in 1997 I could have covered at 12 or 16 in 1998 I could have covered at 34 in 1999 I could have covered at 38 in 2000 i could cover at 45 and 1/2 now- i would realize a loss so big that i don't have gains to take to use it up. dell has not been mu or qcom and never will be i should have shorted rambus or better yet gone long dell at 2. then, i would have sold dell too soon or if i held it now i'd take my gain and relatively gladly pay my tax or hopefully it would be held in my keogh
