Steve: I agree and was voicing my stand a bit more strongly than perhaps I should have. I understand you meant relative to what was expected and agree that down 3% is better than down 6%. As you alluded to, it's the opportunity cost that is really losing us all a lot of money. I am in the "big four" techs, DELL, MSFT, INTC and CPQ and have been LT in those for some time. Sometimes I just wonder how I would do if I just dumped everything into them and forgot about trading. I think our psychology has been so contorted that we now see down 3% as a "relatively" good day. What have we come to? Regards, B
