All: Tomorrow looks good - so far - with the Asian markets up, Globex futures up & Iraq acquiescing to the U.N.'s demands. Check out briefing.com. Tech Stock comments for tomorrow - very bullish on DELL.

Updated for: February 23, 1998


General Commentary

The focus this week will be on the BA Robertson Stephens Technology Conference in San
Francisco... Always on the year's big meetings, this week's conference comes at a good
time... Market's fears regarding Asia have taken a back seat to renewed optimism over
solid long-term earnings growth... Dell's comment regarding robust demand for PCs also
encouraging... Conference will keep focus off Asian problems and on new technologies...
Stocks can get a big boost from such meetings... Oracle is a perfect example, as stock
rallied more than 45% after CEO Larry Ellison made positive comments at the NB
Montgomery Securities Tech Conference in late January... Among stocks to watch are
Microsoft, Intel, Yahoo! and Texas Instruments.

Earnings will be the other driving force this week, as a slew of second tier names are
scheduled to report their quarterly results

Computer Systems & Peripherals

Brief: Dell extended its earnings-related rally, gaining another 3 9/16... Strong
momentum, impressive earnings/revenue growth, earnings upgrades and the bullish market
tone suggest that stock should remain on an upward path... Next target 135-140... Rest of
the group failed to follow Dell's lead, with Gateway giving back 1 3/16 and Digital
shedding 1... Apple eased back to the 20 level amid news that company's share of the
educational market continued to decline... Share in CY97 totalled 26.8%, down from
CY96 level of 41.4% and CY93 figure of 61%... Stock's modest reaction stems from fact
that news was largely anticipated... SoundView cut its rating on Adaptec to hold from buy
following ADPT's announcement that it was buying Symbios for $775 mln in cash... Disk
drive group likely to come under scrutiny at Tech conference regarding near- and
long-term outlook... If group exhibits decent momentum over next few days will be sign
that street suspects that worst is over.
