sure you can.

OTOH, I'll be shocked if "What the heck-tor" has done anything to cut costs or make flash more profitable.

Why don't I short it here? Can you short something when you're already long?

Absolutely! And you can use your Intel investment as backup margin- so you should be able to short a lot. Let us know when you do so :)

Elmer,

Why don't I short it here? Can you short something when you're already long?

Sure you can. I think the term for it is short against the box, or something like that. People used to do it to manage their tax liability in the past, but IRS closed that loophole.
