Well, Im out of NAVR for now - will wait until the dust settles and will be picking up other plays along the way. Been a good year so far - NAVR didn't pan out like MALL and USAI but it may next year if they spin off NetRadio. My next play is SEEK which is launching their go.com site on Monday. With Disney behind them, I've got to join the ride. Also bought some FDX (Fed Ex), hoping internet sales drive the transportation business through the roof. I'll be watching NAVR for the next 50 days or so to see what news may come out - right now there are better plays with our money. Happy Investing, Glenn

Hi...pardon my intrusion. Think you mentioned earlier that current PC was 486/50...me too, until this summer. I loved my IBM Value Point but fried it trying to upgrade, thinking because I had taken a bunch of hds-on cptr classes that I could keep my baby going forever. Bought Dell...not top end but latest bus (100 Mhz 440 bx etc). For less than $2.5k total, got all the software I used routinely (ie Quicken, TTax, MS Office, Visio, AddressBk, PtCast, WdPerfect et al). It is a dream. My recommendations: #1 Buy the biggest HD they sell; #2 Don't buy the latest chip (maybe a 400 is OK). I love the Dell. Take time to setup your PC. Initially, it may frustrate you, coming from a 486. But you will be glad. Again, sorry for jumping in.
