Excellent point Dipy. Much of the bandwidth on this thread (especially when techs were hot) was sniping between INTC bigots and SUNW fans. The rest of it seemed to be taken up by fights between SUNW fans and MSFT supporters. Much the same on the INTC thread, a good percentage of posts consist of name calling/fighting between 'Athlon' fans and P4 fans. Those of us that kept posting about staying away from those 'playing with matches' high flyers didn't make many friends. Ah, but we still have all our cash <gggg>. Best regards, John

well, I'm one of your "techo-geeks" and, sorry to disappoint you, but I haven't been "shafted" either. I'm still a raging bull and I still haven't given up on the equity markets and I still haven't given up on our political economy. One more thing, tech is harder to understand than is "business". Knowing about how microprocessors are built doesn't necessarily guarantee good investing decisions, but it doesn't hurt, either. Something tells me that those who know less about the technology are more prone to be day-traders. The markets and these message boards are always flooded with these type of quick-buck artists. To the rest of us, it's just so much white noise....
