If you wanted something positive, I will share with you my experience purchasing a Gateway G6-350 and a local store today. The saleman was friendly even after I change my mind about 1000 times!!! Seem to know what he was talking about (not like BestBuy people). And when I asked him questions concerning certain hardware specs, he provided me with the answers (Actually, I knew the answers but just wanted to know if he did). Overall, I had a good experience. This will be my only post to this thread since I dont own gtw stock. To the longs, keep the faith.

tippet<NEW YORK, Aug 17 (Reuters) - Credit Suisse First Boston's market analyst Christine Callies said economic fundamentals supporting demand for technology products and share prices are hearty and should remain so into 1999.> That's why I bought Sept calls last Thurs. Credit Suisse must have bought a lot of Gtw stock into their inventory. Probably when Gtw hit 49 only 2 weeks ago. This is what you call a short squeeze. They get the shorts to buy to cover and the puts, to sweat, watching their option value disappear. Welcome to Wall Street in the 1998.
