Charles, where is the main man? He probably knows. He knows everything else, doesn't he?

It is way too hard (but not unreasonable) an exercise to compare Sun vs "other stocks" but here is my cut at what P/E of some competitors of Sun in one or more ways. With Nasdaq composite at P/E of around 21, one can see that the Market thinks that Microsoft will grow way faster than composite and IBM least. Intel and Sun would do about the same growth as the market. If you can figure out which ones the market has gotten wrong, you can probably make money off it :-) Co. P/E --- --- IBM 16.81 (IBM) GTW 19.72 (Gateway) SUNW 20.52 (Sun) INTC 21.28 (Intel) CPQ 30.77 (Compaq) SGI 36.77 (Silicon Graphics) DEC 38.58 (Digital) DELL 48.02 (Dell) MSFT 50.43 (Microsoft)
