<<. . . can I ask one of the old timers to discuss the merits of the stock at this time (at around $6/shr) rather than saying how great everyone is!>>

Shame on you. Don't you know what message boards are for?

And why would you think that anyone's guess about the unknown future price of this (or any stock) would be better than your own speculation? Anyway, if it ameliorates distress, this stock will close at 11 7/16 on Friday, March 5. . . unless it doesn't, in which case it will be lower, if not higher.

Finally, this is a story stock (as opposed to a current earnings stock). The merits can be determined only by how far you think the story can carry the stock within the context of interest in interactivity and TV/PC convergence against the larger setting of general market tone. Good news should the latter remain ebullient; bad news if the bubble bursts. (And as stock stories go, I own almost 20K, which means I think it's a helluva tale with potentially exciting chapters to come.)

Addi, It's great to see you here. I've followed SUNW for years and have read all your post on that thread. You've been a real contributor of information over there and I hope you hang around here as well. I first bought this stock last fall when Sun entered into some agreement with ACTV (think it was some Java licensing agreement?). I felt SUN saw something here so I bought a few shares and didn't really pay to much attention after that. It was dumb luck I guess. I've been accumulating more over the last month. I am not an expert in this technology (not even close) but there does seem to be a story here. I've learned a lot by reading the post here and truly do appreciate all the effort everyone has put into this thread.
