Ouch, I might as well just sit on it now. Selling now would just be putting a little change in my pocket instead of dollars in the bank. Congrats on selling when you did, I had a feeling IOM would miss this quarter after what happened last quarter + the increase of advertising. ONE DAY I'LL LEARN TO LISTEN TO MY GUT FEELING. Worst case I could have sold at a smaller loss and buy back lower if things started looking up. Time to start daytrading to try to get a little back. WOW, first CPQ and now IOM. I'm getting killed in the market over the past few months. Oh well live and learn. Bill

Ok, I'm 100% IOM free now, out at $8, much to my chagrin. That hindsight thing is a killer. I think Iomega is a good company, too bad it's so mistreated (there's some bear bait) by the street--unrewarded for great quarters, brutalized for bad ones, manipulated by the spec. & shorters. I'll look for an entry point somewhere, for a more modestly-sized investment. we should have known about today after kp bought in again and fRock is still full of sh!t time for day-trading... :( -Spank

>> All I know is that in hindsight, I'm glad I dumped every single share of this piece of shit. I thought at $9-$10, I had lost enough. Guess I was right. KE has to go. He is pissing away your money. << I'm glad you realize that, it's not Iomega the company. The problem is KE and his complices. Now you wonder why Moran, the boy who successfully built the distribution channel left. It takes a while before we start seeing the negative effect..... Long on IOM, short on KE. Dr. Porsche
