Have never owned KTEL in my life...although I'd love to short about 100,000 shares of that overpriced pig here !!!!!!!!

Naked puts are serving me well on CPQ for now......

INTC is a MAJOR BUTT-KICKER !!!!

Looks like this market has peaked and ready to shed about 5% in a hurry !!!!

Paul, I'm not worried about PC saturation any more. People are
keeping the TV dark to surf the web, even in England...

excerpt
The study is the most detailed examination yet of British attitudes to home
computers. It contradicts previously held beliefs that computers have
become the
preserve of the young. Opinion Research International found that the
over-60s
spend more time on their home computers than any other age groups and
talk
more about computers than anyone else.

Twenty years ago, children were caught reading under the bedclothes or
listening
to the radio while their parents expected them to be sound asleep. Today,
they
sneak out of bed to play on the computer, according to the study which
found
that more than a third of under-10s were caught using the home computer
after
10pm.
