J.D., One good thing about the bears is that they tend to know more about competing products on the horizon. ******************CNBC side note here*** This am on CNBC the crew had old M. DELL on the CEO interview. Of course, everyone is blown away by DELL's success. Then I noticed that someone asked M. DELL the question "What component makers are making money because of DELL computer?" DELL replied that "Intel... bla bla bla". Of course everyone knows that. So then the question was rephrased "What about other components...like, uh....storage makers?" Reading behind the lines, I'd say that some of the CNBC staff holds a wad of IOM and the real question they wanted answered was "Is DELL going to make Zip the standard?" The funny thing was that M. DELL was not going to answer the question. I wonder what he knows that he wasn't going to say? -John
