Thanks for the dialog on options expiration -- good point to keep in mind. Having sold out some at low seven (for better, unique short term opportunity) and at 9 (profit taking at what I guessed was a short term peak) I am anxious to get back in at low sevens... which could happen -- until the q2 numbers blow folks away. long term threat is still MSFT. the 7.0 sql server beta is getting exposure, and is a COMPLETE re-write. all those db experts that were hired re-did everything (gotta admire someone that spends that much money to 'do it right' ) in 6.x. I still laugh when the marketing junk says it "was built with data warehousing in mind" and sxxx like that, but the reality is that "sphinx" is a solid step toward -- one day -- real NT database apps on the scale now only possible with unix boxes and mainframe/teradata/redbrick/etc...
