KT, no names are needed since I was more interested
in a macro type opinion.

I can mention names... so leading porn site provider
RNWK <g> makes sense longer term and maybe a company
like SEBL. They sit on a lot of cash, have a promising
technology and don't bleed money.

Real Network actually trades at or below cash value.

"The biggest of the changes House Republicans are considering would expand existing tax write-offs for individuals' investment losses. Currently, taxpayers can deduct their capital losses to the extent of their capital gains, and also can deduct as much as $3,000 more of capital losses, analysts said. Republicans are examining plans to double or even triple the $3,000 cap, and allow investors to use more of their losses in other tax years, according to a senior GOP aide."
