Just responding to the posts taking one at a time. Re margin: Yeah, got another margin call today. When I bought back my calls from brcm and jnpr on wednesday, it pushed me into the red. Now that I see in the aftermarket that brcm is "down" about 5 points from the 4 pm close, selling those call back, just may not cut it. well see what's happening in the morning. i don't really know how to read these factoids. Intl slowing growth in europe (or whatever). On eone hand we have already seen/heard this excuse when intel was tooling up for the intro of their pentium chip as a replacement to their 486 chip. No slowdown then. Aapl does not represent the backbone of corp america (unless your into graphics design, or just have to be different!). Maybe we are looking at the genesis of a new problem that is just starting to lift it's ugly head. That's right the deadly dreaded "Y2K.001" bug. We are now checking on our RAID servers to see if they're effective against this Y2K.001 bug (but alas, they are only effective against ants and roaches). Intesting the market was bouyed by PG and other companies earnings, but gets shot down by an apple. Funny how Arrow industries can be shot down by an Apple (William Tell, is probably reeling in his grave from the irony). David
