Larry, Thanks for the insight. I wasn't close to the IDTC thing but indeed it sounds like the support was good for a short term flip. I hope we get the same short term shot in the arm here. Gary

Dear Larry: It would appear that since the coverage is so minimal that the coverage can only increase which is great going forward. Regards, JF Dowd

Alex Brown and Cowen are not small firms, especially considering their niche markets, which are covering growth stocks. They don't have quite the reputation of an H&Q but they are nonetheless well-known and well-respected. An endorsement from either Alex Brown or Cowen is worth more than one from a Goldman because of their specialty, IMHO. However, there is a big downside. Since they focus on growth stocks their primary customers are "fast money" managers (aka momentum players). If Yurie (or any stock they cover) reports a negative earnings surprise, the stock will drop like a rock. Does anyone know the AB & Cowen ratings? And by the way, Bear Stearns was a pioneer in the deployment of ATM. Anyone know what equipment they use?
