<<Keep in mind alot of us were in options - totally different investment vehicle>> Different vehicle, same goal--to get out when the getting's good. It matters not whether one trades in options or stocks. Timing is timing. I am just doubting whether we're really so good as to all pick the exactly correct time to get out (whether through common stock or options). When I say top, I don't mean MAJOR top, just a short-term one--which I'd still argue is as hard to pick as a major top. Hence, my doubts. Andrew

I am still having trouble with this qtr. I'm still concerned with PB and G3 supply. We know margins will be slightly down, expenses somewhat up. We need PB and G3 sales. I'm worried too. I guess we're to believe that since now the leprechauns working at Apple's Cork, Ireland plant are back from their little vacation, more PowerBooks will magically begin flowing into the channel again. I'll believe it when I don't hear about any more PB problems. As I said before, not even the Mighty Steve Jobs has solved Apple's perennial supply problems. Let's hope he reins that one in, and soon.
