Sorry, I translated 'hiring freeze' into cut backs on R&D. At HP, it means about the same thing! I tend to be a VERY conservative investor and will jump at whiffs of trouble. This way, I don't wake up to half my portfolio disappearing. I hate playing the lottery! I see this: Iomega is a one trick pony who's horse is nearing the end of the race. They are trying everything to get it going faster to the finish line! (and run another race?) If ZIP demand dries up, the house of cards will crumble, ruining the future, whatever that may be. I'm glad the spin doctors turned this one around. Should give the shares a boost as the diehards average down, and kick the price up. I have NEVER lost money on a short. (I will jump in when the time is right) I'll say this right now: We'll never see $.14 again (in this century) Good luck! kp
