Wrong! Tactics and Strategies: Cramer on the Real Troubles in Tech Land

All right, I am coming out of the closet. I'm tired of saying "don't worry about it." I don't like the looks of the personal computer market here. That doesn't mean I despise tech. It doesn't mean I think tech is never coming back. It doesn't mean you should short everything.

But I am sitting here watching Oracle and Applied Magnetics be blown to kingdom come and I get that awful feeling that you aren't going to make a ton of money owning any part of anything that goes into a personal computer.
