Vannessa Nikita -- Don't sweat the load. You will more than make that up on the road to glory. Hell, in one day you can go down enough to think you were silly to worry about a little thing like a load. (Or up.)

I don't there are any funds that are as much of a pure play on the sector anyway.

Or you could just buy the stocks in the OSX. Using one of the cheapie brokers you could buy some of all 15 for about $120. Create your own mutual fund -- this would be more fun anyway.

A BIG LOAD?! The only load I'm worrying about is the capital gains. Don't become preoccupied over a 3% load. Who cares when the fund can possibly return 40 - 80%. A 3% load is $300 on a $10,000 investment. The fund can make up that very quickly.
