ok Mr. Niceguy...lemme see if I have this straight. If I WRITE (not buy) the June $30.00 put contract against 500 shares of AMD.....I instantly pocket the $2.80 premium ($1400 total). Then on the third week of June...if AMD closes at $29.9999 or less......I must sell my shares at that price. Do I have this correct? This seems like a nice way to get more upside on AMD with no cash outlay given my feeling that this stock is on its way up. As you may remember I am level 1 options so I cannot BUY options....I can only write covered options. Any advice? Thanks, Jason

The K6-2 550 isn't offered any more. Still waiting for the Pentium 4 to make its way into the bestseller list. What do you think: Which one will be there first, the P4 or the A4??? Peter
