Larry; I agree and will be ready to take advantage of any panic drop early Monday. I will be bidding low low, but like just the reverse of the Kill key on SOES, I can go market and set the hook very fast after I have an order in place. Ie, I start off with a limit order outside the range, it's fast for me to hit change order and click market or for that matter change the limit at least more so than to set one up. Jim

Compaq's CFO told the San Jose Mercury News that if all goes as expected Compaq will be in good shape (inventory wise) by the end of the second quarter. Big IF ALL in that statement. JMHO - problems with INTC, CPQ and CPU are indicative of the industry. The lower margins and soft demand for cheaper machines will hurt other chip makers and box-sellers. Additional demand will be driven by newer and better game software in time for Christmas selling season. I expect CPQ to close near 24 1/2 on Monday. regards, jag-dish
