I see fro the CPQ thread that you are not a fan of MUEI. I bought 2000 shares last summer when Value Line gave them a #1 ranking, and have been given an expensive education ever since. Did you know that they just hired a new COO? Do you think that it's too little too late for them? I hope they get bought out and soon!! Kellis

Steve, Appreciate your response. Did you mean that I just stay in and do not make any changes? '99 LEAP will be expired in Jan '99. When will it be 110 or 150(pre-split price with estimated '98 earnings $5 and PE20?) Could you elaborate more about it? I would break even at $97.5. It is kind of high. When I got it, the share price was @74.5 in Oct. I thought that the striking price $80 was reasonable at that time. Well... I'm a little bit nervous now. Thanks in advance. SK

Re:>this is over by then< Did you mean that the current share price falling will be over and it will have new high by then? Just want to make sure what you meant. In addition, I'm glad to know that you are very confident of CPQ's performance. Thanks. SK

Steve, Thanks for running this thread; my wife and I have learned a lot from you and the other participants. One question regarding the CPQ leaps: where can we go to get symbols, prices and other information on leaps. I stumbled through the CBOE home page and came away confused and empty handed. Leaps seem to make a lot of sense for us cautious short-term but bullish long-term investors and I would like to learn more about them. Thanks again for your great contributions. Regards, Craig A.
