Doc - have you been able to find any good shorts lately other than BBY? The Cohen factor looks more and more like a conspiracy now with Gold Sucks IPO looming ahead. Hope we have a crash real soon and she loses her credibility and money. Story below.

Alski and others on buying new computer - I look at a DELL's ad today and I could not find the 100 bus versus 66 bus info on their product description. Do I have to assume that all PC's below 350 MHz use 66 bus while all 350 and above use 100 bus?

Another question about modem. You mentioned V.90 will be the standard of the future. How is V.90 different from Flex and X2 standards? All DELL modems are V.90. Do I run the risk of not being able to connect with an ISP who uses either FLex or X2? It's obvious I'm not a computer dude myself so please be patient with my questions.

Nice trades on CCI guys! FWIW, I took a look thru the Merrill Lynch site this morning and they were calling for buying into CCI at 10% or so lower when the stock was at in the mid $140's. Just beware that once CCI starts moving lower than $130, you might see Goldfarb issue a buy and run CCI up for a bit.

I almost bit BBY too today, but decided to wait a bit for some kind of downtrend to develop...which I'm sure it will.

CCI just can't seem to keep it up. Did you watch the action today? Bearish from my perspective.
