Bubba, you indicated that the range of Wall Street analyst "target prices" was from $22 to $48. Were all of these targets for the end of 1997 or were they someday it might type of targets? Less than 10 days to go in this year. Happy Holidays to all.

PTB: This board is about Nextel. As for MSFT vs. NOVL, lets let the market speak....I happen to think the market is catching up to Gate's game. Growth roadblocks everywhere. The carnage could get pretty bad. I feel Novell will do just fine thank you. >>You don't have a clue about equity investing, do you? Out of all the positions I took over the past 30-days only one turned to be a disappointment - ORCL. Overall, I made money last month.>> Fine Phineas. Your tracks tell a different message, but yes only "you" know the real P&L story. Since you've shared so mnay details with us, how could we question what is truth vs. fiction in your world. Good luck trading. We have 20 professional traders working for us. Send me a track record and I will take it under consideration. How much do you "play" with? What's your cost per share? Are you getting Reg T relief? Perhaps you should turn pro and become an exchange member yourself. 25% returns with no leverage is the bare minimum. I can get you 10/1 leverage if you have a track record. Hey, drop me a line and we can get you trading Al's money and other OPM's. >>As to "pain", "zap", "ouch", "scream", etc. - you must be referring to your own investment experiences.>> Glad this got you to laugh. Sometimes it's the best medicine.

PT: Thanks for the good advice on MSFT! Good thing I only half listened. PT, it takes a non-educated investor like me to capitalize on your advice. You advised buy MSFT, but you failed to say buy it 5 times and short it 5 times within the same day. So I got the idea to do it on my own Monday. If I just followed your advice without question, where would I be? In at 128 and out at 123. Thanks to me being smart enough not to follow your advice, do I look like a sheep, I broke the days record for Al Gutkin, non-trader. I won't say how much, IRS guys spying here, but I is smiling big time. (bad grammar intended) PT, I'm sorry, your advice doesn't qualify you for the 50%. Perhaps you can ask Fred Smart for an application, and get some training with his firm. In any case PTB, you have a good holliday, keep on postin your stock tips, and whatever you do, stay away from windows in tall buildings. Regards afraid of heights, Al
