>> They are going to sell tons of cable modems. Cable is hot today. Good enough reason to bid it wouldn't you say Mr. Alpert? << There's less profits in cable, earnings report day, AT&T and TCI have a long ways to go to make Cable work, if that's their strategy, COMS is temporarily in a COMA till at least 4pm today. Doesn't seem like a good enough reason to me, though downside is minimal. But the 'COMS factor' is unpredicable. I wonder how many people know that COMS can crank out good Cable Modems? How many remember the TCI/COMS agreement? I doubt many. What's with you today CRAWFORD? Much more speculative than your normal self. You must be in for a few nickels and dimes, just to 'play with the COMS thread'. What I can't understand, is with the recent tech rally, why would you want to waste your time on dull, boring, slow, nothing happening COMS? Personal attraction? Wondering if maybe CRAMER sees something that we all are missing? I guess 100 shares up 1 pt will give you $100.00. Good days wages for a day laborer.
