Do you expect a reply?? Try Datek, you'll get your reply, at least a canned one. With respect to the short term price movements target I buy FP (target 10), Zapata (target 12) and FIBR (nearest term target 14). I just placed 10 bucks each at 10 and 13 in the local casino's roulette. C.

Actually Bill, CPU salesmen ARE lazy and surly, at least here in CT. I bought my last computer from them but swore I would never go back there. The guy lied to my face about what I was buying and I don't appreciate that. I even sent corporate head quarters an e-mail concerning my unpleasant buying experience and they never even bothered to try to appease me with a reply. How long ago was this experience, Hank? Significantly, was it more than about eight months ago, prior to the introduction of the "Apple store-within-a-store"? CompUSA was notorious (though not unique) for much of the behavior you describe, but with the deal with Apple came a bit of a policy change on that score. It's not for nothing that IBM now wants the same kind of deal Apple got.
