I will be very careful now about the age issue when I post !!!!! Thank you for your advise. The market will most likely up this week !!!!!!!! Don't listen to the PE story, because today's environment is different than 2 or three years ago, as well as the way people are thinking. If you look at the PE of other Hi Tech stocks, you will know Microsoft just play a catch up show !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

>> These days investors are starting young (at least in the markets)

You're right about that, t2k, particularly in the i-nutz stocks. I've found myself being tutored by 25 year olds who handle momentum plays with insight and have the nerves of gunslingers <g>. My daughter started investing in a self directed ira at 21 and at 25 has a substantial portfolio and a good job (Account Exec at Waggener Edstrom, msft's pr firm). I'm amazed at how worldly the 2x crowd is; must have been all the cable tv they watched growing up <g>

Tighten your seat belt for the roller coaster ride coming up today. It should be fun.
