Anthony K., I don't know about picking on Tad but the "upgrade at 200, downgrade at 30" crowd of Analysts are pretty pathetic. The joke is that there were 1000 $1M bonuses paid out on Wall street this year. Talk about a rip off. How do you see the full disclosure law affecting the average Analyst. Seems to me they will just have to "make it up", which would explain some of the downgrades lately. Jim

You may or may not have a valid point, but either way you can not make a post like that on this thread. This thread is moderated if you have not noticed. I also did notice Tad's bullish call on FDRY, right before it was cut in half. But you and I both get what we pay from the analyst and so do their clients. Par for a course in capitalism. Mani

> gotta tell ya, you are one crappy anal-ist...!!! > BUy at the tops and sell at the bottom !!! Your response had nothing to do with Tad's message about heatsinks. But, that aside, your message was addressed to the person who got fired for telling everybody to stop buying AMD and to "avoid" INTC when both were at their yearly highs. You shouldn't have a chip against this guy. He got punished for doing what was right and correctly predicting a future trend. He is now in a market for which he is ill prepared, and he has been retrained to act like a regular analyst. If he doesn't, then he loses his job. It is not necessary make this so personal.     -JC
