Yall can quit bitching at each other........and you all can thank me for ntaps fine performance as of late....for the simple fact that I sold 1/3 of my position at 20.25, and because I wanted far more shares then I have, I had no doubt that ntap would make a nice run.....I sold at 20.25 hoping to buy back more shares at a lower price......instead, I sold that 1/3...and even on lousy days, she still goes up and I will more then likely not get those shares back for less then what I sold them at.....so everybody should thank me for selling.......That just ensured a NTAP RISE!

>> Hope you're finally breaking even on those shares you were bragging about that were such a bargain at...

I hate to spoil your enjoyment of others' losses, but my original shares were purchased at 13.25 on 8/5/99, and their adjusted cost basis is approaching zero based on covered call revenue.

>> Maybe you will learn someday that valuation is an important investment tool in addition to all your technical musings.

Perhaps you will learn someday that there is more to valuation than p/e ratios. Have you ever looked at a 10K or 10Q? Do you have a clue about free cash flow? And what value do you place on a sustainable competitive advantage?

>> Whoa, who said I was a perma-bear?

All one need do is look at your archive of posts to verify that you are a fud spreading perma-bear on this and several other boards. As opposed to Down South, the only insights you offer are clues about your lack of understanding and character.

Jerry spent countless, selfless hours helping us to understand ntap's technological merits. It's amazing that a shallow piece of dung like you feels free to castigate his efforts. But that's jmho.

Prosperous investing, Jake.
