Hello, Just got your message. Also I am new to this board so if this ends up on the TLAB board I apologize to those who only want TLAB info. By the way I love TLAB. In reference to your question on what other stocks I would recommend. I would definitely take a look at Medtronic (MDT). This is a great long term medical device company that I have invested in over 10 years. I wish that I would have never traded this stock just like I wish that I would have never traded TLAB. Both are great long term holds. I have traded some of my MDT and have ended up only with fewer shares. We all know the winner of the game with a upwardly mobile splitting stock is the one with more shares. I think MDT maybe stable to possibly lower in the next three months. Lots happening with MDT. Possible merger with BSX and rumors of J&J buyout of MDT. I have no idea what may happen but great long term hold. Just an FYI for the TLAB holders- TLAB reminds me of MDT in 1988. Take a look at what has happened to MDT from 1988 to 1998 and you will be suprised. Investing $50,000 in MDT in 1988 would have turned into $500,000 in 1998. I really think TLAB has the potential to do be a 10 bagger in 10 years. Sorry if this is hype but I really feel they have the technology and management to do it. Another stock that I would take a look at is Qualcomm (QCOM). Has a great story behind it and great technology. The board here has great poster and the Motley Fool board on AOL has great posters that understand the technology and how QCOM leads the pack. I have many others but don't want to bore you. Best of luck with all your investing. Any suggestions for me let me know. Thanks, Mike
