I've been following this chat group for 2 years. In the past it was one of best. It's now deteriorated into a bunch of whining, complaining people. If you don't like BAY or House, why don't you just sell your stock. No one's putting a gun to your head. Second, for those of you who are going to vote against the deal, why don't you instead just shoot yourself in your foot. If this deal goes down you'll be able to sell your stock in the low twenties. Third. Except for a few posts, doesn't anyone realize what a great opportunity you have to buy a world class telecomm company at a 20% discount from Friday just because the momentum players are idiots. Does anyone really believe that NT is worth 20% less in 2 days because it is buying BAY. Buying BAY at 30 is buying NT at 50. This is a layup. I'm buying as much BAY here as I can. Mortgage your house, sell your wife and kids, raise money and buy BAY.

Adam- The key point in your response was that if you "traded" the other networkers, you would have made a fortune. That presupposes you would be smart enough to bail out when the stocks peaked two years ago. Most networkers, other than Cisco, are still below their Fall'96 highs, most by a substantial amount. I would submit that if trading in and out was your game, Bay offered an even greater opportunity for profit because it has yoyo'd up and down more than many. For anyone interested in reviewing any of this historical data, I am providing the site for 4 year charts for any of the stocks in question. Please note the relative history of NT as well. Sorry I cannot provide a link; for some reason I cannot drag the "heart" into this response. http:www.bigchart.com Paul
