<<<Hey Sig, are you out of GEEK >>> I kept the Geek. If selling it the question would be what to do with the money. If I was <60% in Dell, I would buy the the following for each 100 shares of Geek sold at between $40 to $60 Jan 75 Dell call at 3 1/2 Feb 75 Dell call at 6 3/4 May 80 Dell call at 9 1/2 Aug 80 Dell call at 11 7/8 Costs about $3200 total, so you have some money left over Plus you have some Geek left. What will Geek do?. Pure guesswork. IMO it won't go <30 while the mania lasts, but getting to 80 may be difficult. Writing has been called a 'hot' form of communication, since there is so little one can say. So perhaps I could have said put the money in your favorite LT stock, which may have been Csco or Msft or Aol, or other. I am not 'recommending' anything here, just pointing out that IMO the same or better profit might be achieved with Dell calls with less risk than holding Geek. Sig
