El: No, I didn't buy any DELL. Lynn has a point when she says DELL is being vague - vague on purpose, if you ask me. I used to think Michael Dell was a master at managing his stock price - he used to come out at exactly the right time and say exactly the right thing. But when he became very quiet around the beginning of December, I began to wonder if it might signal the beginning of the end, so to speak. Now, I think he might be getting back in the swing with these comments over the past few days. I also find it verrrry suspicious that this buyback was leaked by Scott Schoelzel, don't you????? At any rate, I think both CPQ and DELL may have some more downside to come. I just refuse to go under water any more, although I took a small 1/2 point loss on 5K this morning. I started thinking after Mike's interview yesterday that his comments, whether or not any of them come to fruition, could not be good for CPQ in the short term. I blew out 5K at 42-5/8 before I went out - should have blown the whole wad, but at least I came out about flat. Cash feels real nice right now. I guess I'm just not cut out to be a long term shareholder - I need my beauty sleep. <ggggg> Do I still think CPQ will make $50 by April 1st???? Sure, that's a month and a half away!! K
