Congrats to all of you, but I had to pass this headline along which someone forwarded to me. Wish I knew the publication: " Earnings Update: Tech Gives Good News But Iomega Still Sucks" Is that priceless or what? But, see, commentary from Briefing: •Iomega (IOM +1/16) delivered good news for a change... That is if you can call a loss of $0.03 good news... But fact that loss was 2 cents narrower than expected and that company has brought costs down could give badly battered stock a near-term lift... Resistance is at 5. I hope this sucker goes to 10 so all of you can recover some of the losses this beast has inflicted.

ALL:I listened to the call, all positive, they beat what they said they would do this qt. Unit volume is up and they are cutting costs faster than expected. AGAIN, THEY BEAT WHAT THEY SAID THEY WOULD DO...thats all that matters...those who question slowing unit sales are wrong, I have been reporting increase unit volume for months and it continues in a big way...and wait till the usb ships, you will see 500,000 of these go out this qt....and thats all extra, because i do not believe that all those imacs went out with ls120......

<<The redherring is trying to grow it's business by sensationalism instead of quality analysis. >> Isn't that the truth!! Red Harrings traffic just increased ten folds (and they'll be bragging about that, that's for sure) just by mentioning IOM and the word "suck" as a title of their article. Now who really SUCKS!!!!! Their standards must be low, must financial journalists maitain their professionalism and refrain from using teen words, such as suck!! Did anyone catch Maria B.'s segment from the floor of the exchange? This whole thing is getting out of control and I find her extremely irretating. Actually, her act got old with me rather quickly and now can't help it but to change the channel 'till that segment is over. Red Harrings sucks!! Zead
