Re: "After all, haven't they admitted that all their growth will be in Asia and Russia?" That's why I sold at $74. I'd love to get back in at about $50. Best wishes, I2

Speaking of growth, everybody trying to call the bottom should read this post: exchange2000.com I'm not saying the markets won't rebound. I am saying that when they do, I will be a seller and a put buyer. mb PS - any opinions on MRVC? Whew!

Hi Mike, In the past couple of days, I have encountered one family member and now several friends who have taken their holdings and converted to ownership of DELL. They have actually done these conversions this week...you see, there is going to be a split. They say split as thought it is some magic thing that puts money in your pocket. OK, I guess living in Austin, you would expect to get a bit more of that, but one otherwise bright fellow said that in these risky markets, he wanted a SAFE stock...DELL! Would you not say that it was time for at least a first third of puts on this stock. Please tell me why I am wrong and keep me from being run over by the great DELL machine <grin>. Steve
