Salah, I'm betting 45-50 by January expiry...I believe many will jump on board as they are convinced CPQ is back. I used to have 1500 shares of stock and a ton of Jan '01 30 calls, but after the gentleman from Salomon Smith Barney spooked the entire market with his CPQ call awhile back, I'm afraid I got spooked out of 1K shares. It had looked to me it might try and test 18 again. I did pick up more Jan '01 30 calls at the same time though, so I had not lost faith. I'm not a big believer in conspiracy theories, but sure seemed Salomon was manipulating the markets with their CPQ call then shortly after their semi cycle peaking call. Then within the last few days the upgrade Micron suggesting it might be over the hump...go figure. Anyway, great to hear from you again. I have to admit that due to the volume on this thread I had not frequented it often...just stuck with my beliefs as I've held CPQ for well over a year now. regards, sf
