Paul, It amuses me to see you lose money on those AND your Cyrix/NSM long positions. Hmm... That's what you do for amusement. Maybe you can watch people go to a soup kitchen, and get a real blast. How about the emergency room? You can just go sit there watch the sick people come in, some even brought in on stretchers. You probably have tapes of the starving children news stories. Did you like Schindler's list? I bet you were amused. Joe

Paul , since you are here to study my investments , I have recently purchased LGND , IDTI , CPQ , and RMTR . NSM is the smallest part of my portfolio as I'm not too happy with how CYRIX was controlled by IBM and now by NSM................... “Some industry executives were quick to defend Intel, including Brian Halla, chief executive officer of rival National Semiconductor Corp., which is in the process of buying microprocessor designer Cyrix Corp. "I think the Intel-Microsoft monopoly is one of the best things that ever happened to this industry," Mr. Halla said. "The only way you can get access to a large market of 80 million units a year is to have somebody in control of the standards for the technology." techstocks.com Mr Halla worked at INTEL for 13 years , that's probably longer than you were there !
