>>>hope MSFT doesn't dissapoint, that could spoil the party, no?<<<

I think that is possible but it also depends on IOM's earnings... If they are great and beat estimates by a couple of cents and we don't hear anything about "rising inventories", "further product delays", "negative impact from Asia", etc... I don't think anything will slow us down... We could have something similar to what happened to Compaq today... They announced earnings and beat estimates but IBM's dissapointment dragged them down at the open but that didn't last long... last I saw Compaq was up around $1 1/2 ($3 pre split which also occurred today)...

I think with decent earnings and just a "little" help from K.E.... i.e. he announces OEM contracts for CLIK!, shipment of BUZ, higher than expected milestone for ZIP, Disks,JAZ, DITTO, increased production capacity, anything, and it could be a "very" good day... If MSFT has good results that will just be a little extra frosting on the cake...

To all IOM bulls out there... "ENJOY THE NEXT FEW DAYS..."
