Michael, I remember some time ago you felt that Sanmina was ripe for pickings on the put side. Before the recent slide it hit 103 and is now about $10 lower. Do you still consider it a good "put" candidate? TIA and for your general contributions to this thread and the knowledge base.

To All, Even more reason to hate Compaq. I went to Sam Houston Race Park last night and could not see the races from the Grandstand due to a tent that Compaq had set up for a party it threw for itself. It is bad enough to have the last turn and the stretch run obscured in a thouroughbred race, but in quarter horses, that is the whole race. I complained to everyone who would listen, but got no relief.

Supposedly, CPQ spent $70,000 on the tent and a cool quarter of a million on the party, and that is more than I put in the tote machines during an evening. <g> However, the track is thinking very short term to tick off all of their regular customers for the sake of a one time windfall.

And the damned Presarios don't even make good doorstops.
