Re: I for one am concerned about the future growth of the stock...regardless of how good the earnings maybe. A lot of people are using the thread to voice their impatience with the stock and to voice their concerns that the stock is not rising as fast as they had hoped it would. They worry about whether there will be a stock split. They worry whether the earning will be 48 cents or 51 cents. So the thread has become inundated with impatient, worried people who are looking for a quick killing. If CPQ does as well as DELL for thirty days then people come to the thread to tell everyone to dump their DELL stock and buy CPQ. What we are witnessing is a good example of constricted tunnel vision. DELL's fundamentals are more important over the long haul than any of the technical gyrations in the stock market due to excesses of fear and greed. If DELL's earnings and revenues continue to grow the value of the company will continue to rise. At this time there seems to be no reduction in DELL's growth rate by any one of those two metrics. In fact there may be an acceleration in those two metrics. So, I for one would appreciate it if the nervous ones would calm down and allow the thread to consider issues of substance. Sometimes the posts have an hysterical quality to them. It is not very informative except as an indication of sentiment and worry. If you are nervous, worried , believe the stock will not do as well in the future, I suggest you should cut your margin and/or your position in DELL. In fact if you have a better stock to invest in you defintely should invest in that stock. Jim Kelley
