Yeah, I know one person who bought WMT in 1984. That's how I remember it so well. For 15 years, everytime I see the guy he tells me how many shares he has from his original 100. It's bad enough to make a mistake. Really bad when you have someone reminding you of it everytime you see them. <g> The IBM note was a 100% pure joke. Sorry for the confusion. The <G> was meant to imply it was totally tongue-in-cheek. I have not run across, (or at least do not recall) any estimations of future growth of EAI market. Like yourself, I have a general understanding of NEON's products, but no hands on knowledge. Prior to buying it, I sent information on the company to a retired MIS friend. I told him I had found an interesting company, thought I had a concept of what they did, but I wanted his professional opinion. He called me a few days later. When I asked him what he thought of the company his response was:"I bought 200 shares of it." Hard to argue with a guy who puts his money where his mouth is. Especially when I asked him for his opinion. Your growth rate statement rings a solid note. I own a little Dell and have been watching in amazement as Michael Dell has to go on television and "defend" a 38% growth rate. I've asked several businessmen about that. They said they would gladly go on TV and soil their underware if it would get them a 38% growth rate! (LOL!) I can only DREAM we get a decade of triple digit growth, then have to bear analysts' dis-appointment as it slips to two digits. Regards, Doug
