Bilow, I was very much wanted to short/put dell at 110 but tied up. I knew 90% for sure that dell would tank. Yet my buddy who was in deep red, took risks in buying tons of dell calls when it was 65. When it reached 90 his wife urged him to sell. Well he sold and was angry when seeing dell hit 110 so he bot calls again (not a few contracts as we normally do !!). I always told him dell at 65 is already high...and now I think he is in deeper trouble than the guy w/ margin call of 35K. This buddy has a funny logic..he told me look last year dell always rose in jan feb march...and he also said dell increased 3 or 4 times last year and this year at least dell will double... Any how I missed shorting high fliers last week since I don't have much power. Today dell traded nearly 100M shares just for one stock..what a saturated hype for a stock! Good luck

Hi all; My usual (lame) EE-Times review... Not much this week, but here's another announcement of improved integration in Pentiums. This having to do with the power supply: 3-in-1 controller pair targets new Pentium motherboards The devices reduce the number of chips required to two, compared with the three and sometimes four chips otherwise needed. techweb.com Looks like the rainy weather for DELL is over, and the rainy-day bears have abandoned the thread... -- Carl
