Text to Speech program? I came across some references to this program both in Spanish and English. Is this something new? The pages I found were vintage 1996. John

The only way to kill the shorts is the excellent Q2 reports due within 2 weeks. By that time, most of them will give up by covering back with the prices they wouldn't want to pay. My personal take is that Apple will show a profit in Q2, I just don't know how much. I've invested in some July call options, and I expect that if the profit is in the 90m-100m range, the stock will easily climb into the low 30s. However, that kind of profit seems a bit high to me, given Apple's historically poor Q2 numbers and the slower PC market in general. I'll be the first to shout from the rooftops if Q2 comes in anywhere near the 90m mark, but personally I'm just hoping for numbers equal to or better than Q1's 47m. Question is, if the numbers do come in at only 50m or so, does AAPL trade up or down? This is my first post in this thread, though I've been a long time reader of some other stock threads here on SI. Long live Apple!
