Sandy, you and me differ a lot here. you feel good with few adds in paper. you get excited when you see some sales in Ingram etc. you are a too nice guy and are easy to be pleased. well. not too long ago, i was like that. But how could you not change with IOM disappointing again and again?. Why is that no one bothers what happened to the 22nd Mil zip drives? People get so excited and pumped up when the Million count goes up from Sept -> Dec due to seasonality. But the count suddenly freezes after that and people just don't even talk about that. I am so far convinced that IOM is just a 2nd half company and you can probably buy the stock by Aug end and sell in Dec/Jan. But i am not a smart trader like Truff and others in this thread. I expect new year highs in a stock over a period of time just like MSFT or CSCO. I have enough CSCO and just invested in IOM thinking/believing the company. May be we all got caught in the Management B.S/Hype. It is better to accept that instead of treating Rocky as our enemy. In fact, he has done a lot of favors to this thread by pointing out the hype. Sure, he hates IOM and exaggerates things. Anyone with slight common sense can figure that out. Net result is that he is correct so far and that's all matters to me. I don't care if he is paid or crazy or what ever u want to call. This is an investment thread and and he has been correct so far in figuring out IOM as an investment. The BULLS here are wrong so far (atleast from mid 96). I agree that many are nice and discuss nicely and i have a lot of respect for them in general. But when it comes to IOM, they are flat out wrong so far. I think the main reason is with the IOM and the management. They just cheated out everyone here. I would be happy to see if the thread focuses on the real enemy which is IOM itself and not jump on Rocky here. After all, IOM creates Rocky or Joel or any bear. Thanks. I am still long on IOM and would be happy to be proved wrong for my judgement here. I will be really glad if i become the contrarian indicator of this thread. Finally, i just want my holdings to go up. That's all. Please, please IOM, some how make me stupid. Surprise me for a change. I know i am asking for too much but but could you try?? -senthil
