El: I guess from your response you refer to my first suggestion - but I thought that might cause offence to some so I withdrew it and changed it to "Harvey".

Closed out my naked Intel Feb $130 puts today at 4 3/4...only 1/8 off the low for the day !!!! (for a nice profit, I might add). I love it when that happens... YES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Any reason for the late sell-off in techs, or just profit-taking ??? CPQ looks like it might hold $40 after all...I might have to raise my target......maybe to 35 1/4.... jajajajajajajaja Time is running out to load up on EPAY cheap !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jimbo.

the person as a very well informed poster here Perhaps the infamous Steve aka hpeace? I read through a lot of the Rose testimony. I couldn't find anything that looked very interesting, let alone perjury! Rose painted himself into a corner on some amazing things - such as what the difference between forward and backward compatibility, which after a lot of debate with the suave David Boies, ESQ. were determined to be exactly the same thing, or at least 'we don't split hairs at Compaq over the difference between forward and backward, it is compatibility that matters' or something like that. Somehow I don't think that's the "smoking gun" the DOJ was looking for. Rose is either doing a masterful imitation of a monty python character or he had a little too much valium...
