P-14----------- there are some big tech names coming out tonight. If most are good we could end on a good week. DELL warning could have a neg effect that needs to be offset... DELL and others have ha the 90 day same as cash for months. They set those with a decent credit rating uo with HRC. If none of the 3 payments are late then it is interest free. One day late and they are in for 20+% but DELL has had their money. HRC is banking on enough misses to make a fortune. Besides, they figure anyone buying a high end machine is not going to default. It really is a money maker for the lander and the Vendor gets their $$ immediately. Also, beats the need for those with little self-restaint from using a credit card and saves the Vendor the charge from the card company... Actually a money maker for all but those that make a late payment...
