Yeah, first the Brazilians, now the Chinese... my gut, FWIW, says we will be OK though, and that the selling won't hurt DELL as much as other stocks. Yet another dip to buy... in my case, calls, for killer Feb earnings... Think I might target shoot some Feb 85s.

abraves, They're getting better, the naz futures. Here's a little tidbit of info I just picked up off my research site: 01/22/1999 Microsoft (MSFT) New Earning Estimate as of 01/20/99 for fiscal year ending Jun-99. Prior Estimate was 2.35. New Estimate is 2.62. Reason: Strong PC shipments I like that strong PC shipments remark.
