David S. (1), All,

Gateway due to announce earnings, but has a conference call on another subject. Takeover???

NEW YORK, Jan 22 (Reuters) - Gateway 2000 Inc will hold a
teleconference at 1830 EST/2330 GMT to be hosted by chairman
and chief executive Ted Waitt.
Gateway, a maker of personal computers, is scheduled to
report earnings after the close, but a spokesman for the firm
said the conference call would relate to matters separate from
the company's earnings report.
The spokesman declined to comment further on the content of
the teleconference, which is slated to run 20 minutes.
Shares in Gateway eased 1/16 to 33-11/16 in Nasdaq activity
on Thursday.

David: RE: RSI is not a stock symbol. You didn't miss anything!

RSI stands for Repetitive Strain Injury and is serious among the keyboard bound. Randy mentioned his mother was "under siege by RSI" and I responded with voice recognition software info that he thought might offer some help.

RSI is serious. Medical Department at MIT counsels students about avoiding it and confirms students have had to change majors and careers when permanent damage is done. Employers are concerned because of money spent on Workmens Compensation Claims.

You can't invest in RSI unless you have the solution to the problem. That would be worthwhile. For now, voice recognition offers hope to those afflicted.

Tough day to be long on Iomega.
