>>I would like to point out that reassuring conference calls have been made for companies that wound up in the toilet as well. A bunch of people talking on a phone line together will not change fundamentals. << BO - On the other hand, considering that the people who were talking on the phone know more about the storage industry than you do, and more about Iomega specifically, whom should we listen to in our efforts to analyze fundamentals? Perhaps you should cover your short while the loss is still small. BTW, did you listen to the call? I did. Have you anything to say in the way of a substantive rebuttal to the points that were made? - Allen

B.O.!!!!! Don't tell me you didn't cover that short! You got the chance of a lifetime yesterday! At least you should have covered the first one so you can short more at a higher price!

<<A bunch of people talking on a phone line together will not change fundamentals>> That's right and the fundies look great to me! Opinions and wishes cannot hide the truth. 1. Zip is a lock and hifi is doa. 2. nomai has no shot outside of France! You know this and wishing these realities away will not change things. Should of covered this week. It is obvious that Iomega will no longer stand around and allow the lying manipulating shorts to spread thier feces around.

<<A bunch of people talking on a phone line together will not change fundamentals.>> It's apparent that you don't understand the market or the fundamentals of investing. The "bunch of people" that you referred to are the Analysts that move stock prices. The investors on this thread can't move the stock (unless there are some big buck investors here), the Analysts through their clients, and firms, make the recommendations that move the stock either up or down. The Analysts that I heard on the CC were very positive on the company, and they addressed all the outstanding issues that are now facing the company. They did not see any threat to the company from these issues. Stock Bull
