No Paul, YOU are a wise man... I'd like to tell everyone a bit of annecdota about Joseph P. Kennedy, Sr. Before he got appointed as first Chairman of the Security and Exchange Commission he was a major market player. One day in the summer of 1929 he was getting his shoes shined before he went down to the Street for the day's trading... The shoe shine boy knew his client and he related that he was "in the market" and would appreciate hearing a tip... Well, Old Joe got out of his chair and went to the Exchange and liquidated most of what he had... He theorized that if everyone is in the game, then thats not the place to be... his contrarian perspective kept him out of the Crash and preserved his fortune...And as Santayana has oft been quoted, "Those who fail to remember the mistakes of the past are condemned to repeat them in the future" All the techs are going to get hit, Dell is no exception...
