Stitch, As you probably know already, you aren't the only one. However, as I have said before, August is historically a great month for accumulating drive stocks. It is when you can't imagine why you would buy these things that you get the best returns if you do. This is what is meant when people say to "buy when there is blood on the street". But of course, one gets so paralyzed with fear that it is almost impossible. Best, Sam

Stitch; I hope, your confusion will not last too long and that the messages I have posted will be of some help. Sam's message is very true. Patience is another necessary element in this or any other investment game. You must be willing to believe in your own judgement and have the strength of your convictions about any investment strategy. You know a good deal about this industry and its future. That gives you a leg up. William Epstein

Stitch: Follow your instincts, buy,buy,buy ! Who am I, a poor Hoosier,to advice the worldy "Stitch". I have watched your posts for quite a while and know you make your decisions after significant analysis. I am following the DD and Semicon stocks myself. Tempted to put my retirement money and the kids college funds in these sectors. But, I will watch them closely. Got in at 16 on AAPL. Seem to be doing fine so far. Wonder if iMac is going to be a hit in Asia as it is predicted to be here.
