LT... Question for you. Dont you short Dell primarily because you believe it is a hyped up stock without the fundamentals to justify the high multiple? Well, now we have a situation where there are other stocks, Im referring to all of the internets here, which are even more expensive, much more, than Dell and in some cases have no earnings whatsoever. So, with your philosphy wouldnt you want to be looking at shorting ebay or yhoo vs. Dell at this time? Because Dell makes money and is clearly gaining mkt share and is on the verge of dominating in midrange servers (jmo). Michelle

That is exactly what I said L.T. However as to having to wonder why you ever respond, consider yourself relieved of that burden dear sir. You remind me of a chimney sweep; you put out the fire below, and frighten the swallows from their nests above; then scrape a long time in the chimney for a sixteenth, and eight or quarter, cover yourself with soot, and bring nothing away but a bag of cinders and then sing out from the top of the house as if you had built the damn company.
