>>Besides, if XYLN were to get acquired on Monday, I bet you would kick yourself. I know I would. << I am trying out Vulcan mind control so that I won't look back. <ggg> cheers, JF

Several points on that response. First is XYLN is one of the most stable stocks in the market. I agree with you and I'm down already for getting out. (I too need a breather sometimes). Xyln will flucuate around the current price until acquired which is probable. I was speaking in general. I think DELL, et al., are both a risk and an opportunity. I believe the market drops next week and dell and the internet stocks go first. Note that these stocks rebound first so I consider this a nice opportunity in the making. Clinton will bomb Iraq (the conditions are still there), if possible. Third I have trouble believing that Greenspan will reduce the interest rates on Thursday. The market has taken the drop into account already. If it doesn't happen, so goes Dell and the internet stocks ... ergo opportunities. I bet on Dell as a buy first thing Friday morning. Xyln will remain within a point of where it is week end, whatever happens. Make a bunch next week and keep a bunch in reserve for opportunities. Glenn
