It is an interesting phenomenon on these boards that when a youthful boaster appears there are inevitably numerous replies. Many of the posts to this point are responding to Dale (including me of course). I'm sure that someone is already preparing a PH.D thesis on the meaning of these anonymous interactions. Dale.... you said that when there are "more sellers than buyers there is downward pressure"....... is this a recent observation of yours or a long held conviction? I think that most of the readers here have made this simple connection long ago, probably when you were even younger and sillier than you are now. You referred several times to readers "suffering", "time of great pain". Speaking for myself I don't and won't feel pain regardless of what happens to SUNW... I have been wrong before. It is simply investing as best as one can... it's not a matter fo the bravado which you so unnecessary display. If your scenario emerges as a correct one then most "longs" will shift their strategy and hopefully enjoy this holiday season with their families. Please learn from the many intelligent posts that are both pro and con SUNW. Learn from their tone. Best wishes to you Alan

Dear Friendly Dale: I for one almost wish it would drop back to 58 for awhile. If it were to I would increase my position substantially in the stock. SUNW is a different company today than it was just a few short weeks ago. The AOL/Netscape/ SUNW alliance spells, I believe a sea change in investor perception and ultimately in Reality for SUNW. SUNW which has grown faster than most of its competitors will now grow even faster in the future. This is fact, not conjecture or wishful thinking. This stock is destined to well exceed $100 a share, if not this year then next year. JDN
