Bill/Brian, Are you guys talking about the Intellabees again. Looks like the manoftheyear rally in Intel faded, as Intel failed to hold todays highs.

Bill: In a College Marketing class it was taught that there are 3 phases for a new product or Invention and the example given is usually when the ball point pen was invented. Phase 1: Comes out at a high price and there are those that just have to have it rather then wait for the Price to go down. Phase 2: More producers/manufacturers come on Line and more Consumers but at that reduced price due to Competition. Phase 3: Market for Product is Saturated and Price is low and everybody is buying it ie when Microwave Ovens went from $1000 to less than $100 or Ball point pens from $10 to $.25. There are some Hackers and Avid Gamers who just have to have the Pentium II. Charles
