I called this one, anyway. Now, if I were as good on my stocks... I sure wish Steve Jobs wanted Wallpaper as badly as he wants Quicken. :-) Headline: Apple Expected To Subsidize Development Of Mac Version Of Quicken ====================================================================== NEW YORK -(Dow Jones)- Apple Computer Inc. interim chief executive officer Steve Jobs is close to announcing a deal with Intuit Inc. to resume development of Intuit's Quicken finance software for the Macintosh platform, the Digital Bay column in Thursday's San Francisco Chronicle reported. The paper said Apple will probably help subsidize Intuit's Quicken development in exchange for a deal to bundle the software on new Macs. Intuit a few weeks ago suspended development of Quicken for the Mac, a move that underscored how Apple's attempts to revive its flagging platform haven't yet helped developers working to create software for the Mac. Intuit CEO William Campbell serves on Apple's board and some Mac software developers want Apple to force Campbell off and replace him with someone whose business depends more on the success of the Mac, the Chronicle said.

> At 10:58AM there was a 2200 contract (220,000 share) purchase of Jan >'00 $30 calls. These are the LAAAF's. Maybe one of you people took my recommendation of yesterday VERY seriously ??? I don't have the prior days "open interest" to see if these options were new writes, closing positions or just trades. Could be really relevant .... anybody know the number? ** David
