If I am biased because I missed out on some MSFT money run, then why wouldnt I be on the Intel board posting against them or IBM or Amazon, etc. Next time, please put some grey matter to work when you post. toy

Regarding our discussions on the Dell migration from Novell to MSFT. Here is a posting from a recent former employee of Dell that provided his inside info on what really was happening inside Dell's IT work... Message 6145217 Line-of-Business function relying on Novell at Dell. Well, based on this person, we'll see how successful Dell is in their migration. Afterall, the best form of advertising for Novell will be when Dell falls on its face in the migrations to NT. Novell is getting more and more of these examples. When NT5 and Active Directory ever arrive, these examples will take longer to write then they will show up. :) toy

PMS: "Looks like you have a bias to most of us..." I agree with you. Toy posted on the day after MSFT earning release date: "(BTW folks - remember my stock prediction for today? Peak at about $105 in early trading and then start sliding below $102. Looks like my $105 peak might be right-on already because the slide is starting to happen - thank you thank you - no applause". You can not make this kind of detailed stock price prediction without closely following and observing the stock price for a long time. In addition, it looked like he also followed the stock price quite closely that day. As you knows, MSFT went up to close at $110 on Thursday before backed off to $106 3/8 on Friday. I belive that as a speculator, he has shorted MSFT (or has owned stocks of MSFT's rivals) and been trying to talk down the stock. Otherwise, why would one spend so much time day and night concerning himself with MSFT instead of companies of his investment. Sam
