Randy,yes I remember like it was yesterday. It opened on a Monday at 20 and by the time i got my money to Fidelity from Alaska here it had already gone up over 45%. I got in at 29 on Thursday, sold later that year for 30 something. Can't win them all, but what a bummer to not have the guts to hold it. First stock other than a mutual fund i ever bought too and bet the farm on them and then couldn't handle the day to day price moves of being down 2,3 or 4 points a day.I was broke at the time except for that stock and the stress of the price moves was just too much for a new investor like me to handle. But I made a profit anyway. Now I've turned into an intel options trader, wish i would have had half the guts back then that i have today, probably would still own it today. Good luck to you Gordon
