Sam,

Welcome to the merry land of Disk Drives, where traders get turned into investors in one long, thrilling roller coaster lesson. You always get another chance to buy or to sell, sooner or later.

I'll be sure to tell that to my friend who had a handsome position in Micropolis. <VBG>

-Robert

Ah ha! So that's what happened to me! I was just a happy go-lucky trader, doing the 1 - 3 day in & outs, then POW - I bought QNTM. Now I look in the mirror, and guess what I see - An investor I am!

Geez... and it hurts so bad too! Now I'm holding and hoping. Looks like I'll have to buckle up and ride this "long thrilling roller coaster lesson" that you cite. Gosh, I can hardly wait. (woe to us all).
