>>>(btw, that's decimal, not hexidecimal)<<< You can laugh about that, but at least 1/8ths and 1/64ths convert smoothly into hex if you add decimal places. Like 0.f is 15/16. 0.2 is an eighth. (Did you realize the big board was kind of on binary all along? 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/16...) Maybe we can covert Nasdaq to hex? Hey.... Gotta have a dream. Cheers, Chaz

Sam, I think sales numbers will not be the most significant piece of the April show. I think the merger, the product pipeline, the trade show stories, case studies, new partnerships, the recent press coverage. There is much good going on but i don't think there was a big release this quarter, so no huge sales figures. Just hopefully solid sales of Delphi, C++B, JBuilder!, the new appcenter, and some big enterprise accounts. Then ramp up into upcoming product releases (JB2, D4...) and hopefully we Are undervalued and set to be more noticed. Cheers, m

Sam, Re: >>"FWIW, today's market action could bode well for this stock tomorrow. If the stock instead continues this slow decline, then I will get nervous."<< This stock has been under accumulation for the past 2 years. It makes no difference what happens tomorrow the path of least resistance is up. Uncertainty is it's only enemy right now. It is a BUY now. Will be a STRONG BUY on any dips. Don't get nervous. Don't be an April fool! TTOSBT

"The DOJ is no longer in a debate about whether or not there are anticompetitive practices, but now is at a stage to determine what is meaningful relief," said a source familiar with the investigation who works for a Microsoft competitor. The department's "chief economist [Dan Rubinfeld] and [antitrust division head] Joel Klein are traveling around the country reaching out for advice," the source said. from news.com My guess is we'll see the action against MS in May. Based on the midway gap in MSFT, it should reach 110 by the time they get the book thrown at them. That can be an excellent point to short with a 5 points stop for the downside target of 100 and 90. Lucent Technologies (LU) looks like it had an exhaustion gap on Friday with 5 times average daily volume. The price at 72 is also a double from Jan 9 low of 36, a strong resistance according to Gann. I'd say we see a pull back next week. Another pullback candidate, Yahoo, had a classic one-day-reversal on heavy volume. Second tier software looks good. NOVL holds above support at 10. They could benefit from DOJ action and break out of the price channel they are in. APLX broke through the channel on good volume. A positive development. BORL, the one-day-reversal on the downside made on Mar 13 appears to be losing steam. A more powerful influence is the one-day-reversal on the upside made on Mar 23, appeared to be in force. All this company needs now is to make the 52-week high by breaking 12, this will bode well for sale and marketing. And they will be on their way to become an enterprise tool company which implied that the stock price will have to be in the 20's at the minimum.
