Tony, Meanwhile, if nasdaq holds up, my business(tech sales to banks and brokerages--stuff they need to upgrade to or lose out to schwab next year) will boom second half. I am a salesman--nobody cares about these employment numbers, they care about low interest rates, tax cuts, and most importantly they dont want to be sitting with old tech during the next leg up in retail brokerage(2002). So they are ordering now. My first signed contract will come in June 1. The only thing that can stop me is a return to nasdaq 1600 which could push out next leg up beyond 2002. I dont believe that will happen and i believe that my situation in my field is similar to where many other industries are. CANT risk being left behind during the next growth phase + visibility is back. . End of story. Mike
