You left victor out but I think he sold at a loss some time ago and then jumped out of his first floor hotel window only to skin his knee and his ego. He was last seen giving senior citizens discount tours of White Chapel in his 1952 Morris Minor. jajaja El

NW...I like it !!!!! Thanks CPigQ 4 some decent news.....Thank goodness I held my nose and bought more like Robbie did....also took advantage of MSFT's dip to establish a position around 42 and got a big chunk of INTC in low 30's.....Even PU'd a few AAPL 4 the 1st time ever, as it wasn't selling much over CASH value..... It was pretty much like shootin' fish in a barrel, IMO..... Of course, the ironic part is that the only way these stocks can seem to rally is to reduce the expectations so low that they can't help but exceed them....once that happens, the expectations start getting racheted up again, and eventually they miss, creating a nasty cycle....seems CPQ is doing a half-decent job of managing expectations...of course MSFT is the all-time master of low-balling the estimates....every other public company could stand to learn from master MSFT's book of tricks on that one !!!!!! GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO EVERYTHING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jimbo.
