Andreas - You have to do what you feel is right, but it does not make much sense to sell at these levels. Remember IBM back in 1993? Mainframe market dead, PC's will run everything, IBM in chapter 11, etc. etc. Since that time, IBM's stock price has quintupled, 40 to a split adjusted 200. If you look back at the Cisco thread in the spring of 1997 (or the COMS thread), there was the same type of desperation. I can't tell you when this thing will turn around, and I don't like it either, but I think the best thing to do is wait it out if you can. Good luck, John
