Hey, Rocky, welcome back. I had feared that with last night's absence you had left for good. Your comedy posts, with their dry absurdisms, self-contradictions, and just plain funny characterizations of the market, are the main thing which keeps me chuckling through the workday. Your investment advice ("short AOL" about 50 points ago, etc.) has kept me way in the black, even though my investment in Iomega has only shown a little less than a 100% return (I didn't see your "short this sucker now" signal in time to buy more at 3+, I'll pay more attention next time).

Hmmm..with all due respect, it seems to me this is why you are in the hole with IOM. All of these "excellent posts" have done nothing but blow smoke up your a__. The reality is on the store shelves and on the top and bottom line. biz.yahoo.com Yeah, what a dumbass! Up a measly 30K! More money than you all make in a calendar year...

>>The reality is that Superdisk is now the dominant OEM presence.<< Dude, can you 'splain that to me ? The major boxmakers web sites and magazine advertising prove otherwise. Or are they just bundling the Zips with their old box inventory that they are trying to move. Rocky, I am so stupid I can't find ANYONE to order a HIFUD drive from. Can you help me out here Buddy. ( Oh, I meant that plural, Buddies. Or Buddys.) I have been trying to get a Castlewood Orb in the new computers I am ordering but none of the majors seem to know about it. Is the Superdisk going to make that obsolete too. After all, the Orb isn't floppy compatible. >>"Excellent posts" from the "Long Iomega" crowd?<< Rockys or Rockies should I short here or should I wait for it to drop another buck and then short ? Do you think it will drop to 3 again? Should I short then? Give us some guidance here please. WD
