Trufflette, Ha ha! You are killing me this am. Ya know, those "roach motel" stocks can be pretty dangerous to the bugs! I just watched some analyst on CNBC admit that him and many of his friends just got clobbered due to short positions on Dell computer. Shorts check in and crawl out the other side sans portfolio. I myself am really a big ol bear these days but I can't help but think that IOM is a great buy and hold. I like the malthusian nature of zip disks. I just wish there were LEAPS available. There are those long winded options available on Intel and I think I'm going to pick them up. That company has some of the greatest engineers and marketing people on the planet. They may have stalled recently but I think they will develop products that we have not even thought of yet. They have the cash, they are all young, and have a vested interest in making the most of shareholders value. They simply rule. They are the Green Bay Packers of Semis. My only concern is that Americans are going to be spent out sooner or later. I don't expect to see any booming sales in Asia for the next few years. Could be some tough times ahead for the top dollar chip people. Sorry this was so long winded, -John ps Dallas Cowboys in '98!!!
