techstocks.com I started another thread with a title that doesn't say "upcoming IPO." Because in one week, this will no longer be upcoming. Rex

I don't know about 100%, but you're right, my earlier post feels low now. I think its the underwriter's intention to price it about 15% under the expected open. This obviously doesn't always work out. They have to walk a line between getting the most they can for the company and making it attractive to investors. I agree with you, however, it seems interest is heating up. I still think it'll price over-range, could be as high as 14. A 50% pop on that would give us an open of 20-21. For the moment, that seems pretty reasonable. As for what happens on the open market, who knows. Of course I hope I'm totally wrong and this is another RAMBUS. My broker is still promising me a small allotment. We shall see. I'll post anything else I hear. Needless to say, the above is purely my cynical .02. Hehe. Should be an E ticket ride.....Good Luck to everyone! Ed
