Finally, the issue of Rocky's "pay" seems to be a dominate issue on this thread, so I spent some time investigating Mr. Reid, and I can tell you the source of his pay. It's not money. Rather it's very significant product "discounts" that Mr. Reid receives from one of his suppliers who would indirectly benefit from Iomega's demise. So in that sense he is "paid" to post negative information about Iomega. Why not answer this allegation against you? Your silence seems to be a clear indicator of your guilt. It appears you've lost the itty bitty amount of credibility you once had. Shame on you for telling people to sell in the 2's just weeks ago.....

Sanyo, Aiwa. Castlewood hasn't released any other names yet. OH BOY, what powerful players!

hey rocky, Please enlighten me regarding your investment strategy. I just don't get it!, why do you recommend selling IOM on Oct 8? "Well, we're here: IOM $2 15/16 IOM is now in the $2's. Don't wish you could have sold in the high $2's. Sell now. IOM is headed lower" and then decide to buy 11 days later at a premium??? "just bought some IOM. I like this short term play leading into Comdex. Nice 2 day rise, and heavier volume than normal (although that's not saying much)." I'm sure there is some genius at work here that I'm simply not gifted enough to understand.
