Rocky, regarding bailing out of Iomega (Sorry all, I couldn't resist) Rocky, do you mean like the last time you bailed, missing an additional 32% run-up? Or the first time, when you sold at $14 and missed an 128% run-up? And, I'm curious, did you sell your AOL today or did you miss the last time that terd will ever see $93? I actually hope that you sold (not that I'll believe you anyway) as I'm sick of hearing you talk about the only stock you own that's not in a loss position (Intel, Western Digital, and Quigley's giving back everything each and every day). Simply pitiful. BTW, when do you plan on answering Truff's question regarding your detailed TA analysis on AOL? I'm interested in learning from you. HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHA.

Remarkable, Just when we get Rod MacP to blow away, Rockhead comes back full bore with his constant dribble. Was at CompUSA today and bought a Zip disk 3 pack from Maxell (an Iomega co-brander) for $32.97 and a $6 rebate (from Maxell) that puts a zip disk cost at $9 each without buying a gig-o-pack of 10. One more step towards Zip standardization is a disk price that doesn't matter much (probably $2 - 5 each). That will really drive sales of Zip drives and disks. Another minor point. Ditto Max may be a sleeper product we are not paying much attention to, but I have noticed these are being featured and sold quite a bit and now I see Verbatim is co-branding the Ditto Max 7 Gigabyte cartridges. Must be some volume expected for them to get into this. Any comments about Ditto Max sales? Talk about really cheap storage. Regards, David S. Long on Intel and Iomega

Just for fun I put Rocky's post in the Alta Vista Translator to see what it looked like in German. Makes just about as much sense in German as it does in English <ggg> >>At Million ein Monat denke ich worden nicht, daá mehr OEMs herauf die gegebene letzte erschienene Kapazit„t mit Vorzeichen versehen werden kann war ungef„hr 13 Million Laufwerke ein year.<< Und nary ein Blick von MCI oder von anderem Reiáverschlusshersteller irgendein. Er Art von Marken Sie wundert sich, wenn Iomega sich entschieden hat, die Produktionskapazit„t auf zu begrenzen nur soviel wie, sie innerhalb einer bestimmten Zeitmenge verkaufen k”nnen. IOM-Einkommen nimmt einen Tumble 1. Q -- gleichm„áiges falscher als letztes Jahr. Dieses ist ein Vorrat, der an einer Pr„mie von P/E 37 tauscht. Auf lagerleistung IOM's nach 4. q-Einkommen, das dieser Monat prfen sollte, sehr disheartening. Ich habe Weise vorher gebrgt.
