Hi everyone....well, I'm fully in now. tripled my shares (bought at $12 7/8 first time...today added twice at $11 1/4). Also am playing the calls as of today...entered on the May 12 1/2's (CPUEV's).

Great opportunity to buy a good co. at Asia flu prices (because it hasn't participated in the post Asia rally). Not alot of co's on the big board of this type that can be scooped up at October/98 crash prices:)

Obviously by playing the May calls I expect to be long at least 2-3 months if need be. May be longer dependent upon the movement in the stock. I have paaaaaaalenty of patience when it comes to investing so waiting is never a problem. I won't be buying anymore CPU unless it breaks $10...I hope it doesn't since I would rather not play the average down game much further on this one...monies are needed for other plays.

I'll be more active in the thread now that I have a vested interest (many many months I have been absent because I was out of the stock long and short).

Best of luck to the CPU longs:):):)

Rich

Hi Dale welcome aboard. Yes, lets hope the tide turns, of course, it will take some sort of action by mgmt. hopefully, they will find a focus that begins to get some respect, profits would be nice too. Geez, it think I blew it, sold my Gillette yesterday @ $55 after the qtrly results seemed to get no attention. This a.m. analysts are upgrading, yikes. Well I will look to CPU to make it up to me. Regards and GO CPU!! CT
