Kalpesh- Sorry. I'm a LONG TERM INVESTOR and I don't try to scalp points here and there. If i'm gonna sell, i'm gonna be gone for good. If I'm holding on, I'm holding on. And I'm holding on to this one. It's worked very well for me so far. Being able to hold on for the long term is one big advantage we little guys have over the "big boys" IMHO. I don't need to show a profit every quarter, I don't have to window dress my portfolio, I don't have to dump my losers so they don't show up on my quarterly report. Sure, sometimes I'll hold something a little too long, but it stops me from missing out on my really big winners, like DELL. And I believe that Checkfree will join that list. I've held it going below this point before, and I'm gonna keep holding it. Good luck to you and to all on this thread. It's been a great help to me. Paul
