<<I am doing the opposite and shifting my AAPL stock positions into LEAPS. Take a look at Jan 2000 options. Estimate what you think the range in stock price may be at that point. Calculate your returns. Ponder the result.>> Well, I try to be conservative with an old fashion way. It's taxable when your leaps options expire while I still can put it there until my regular income is significantly reduced. I think you are going to make a fortune just counting on July's Q3 reports and MacWorld events. Having not done the sensitivity analysis regarding profits from leaps vs. regular stocks, hence I couldn't know which one is better if stock's definitely on the upwards. Phil
