Thanks for the advice, WB. It's a decision I believe I will come to shortly. I have moved from 0% dell in July '98 to 40% dell (including options) as of this morning, starting with 100 shares on 7/15/98, and am incredibly bullish on MD and his organization. The primary account I'm trading in is an IRA. It is "my" account, but "our" money. Nancy has been my wife and life partner for 27 years, and I value her judgement and intuition, though she is not a stock market person. I bounce ideas off her as a form of due diligence, but don't necessarily wait for a consensus. The way dell will grow in the next 6 months, it may become 75% of my portfolio without any reallocation. In the interim, I'm not being hurt too much by my other investments as witnessed by the 30 week graph at techstocks.com. Frank

WB, It was very kind of you to send me those suggestions. I thought it over on the 6 hour flight back from Boston, and decided they had a lot of merit, so I called my wife and suggested she open her own trading account with the inheritance she is receiving from her mom's estate and manage it herself. Then, after advising her, I sold the remaining index funds in "my" account (which she had resisted liquidating up till then) and bought more dell, splitting it between March options and the underlying equity. I'm over 50% in dell now, and will send you a bottle of good Sonoma Valley wine if it works out as you (and I) believe it will. Uncle Frank
