>>With under $600 PC's gaining that kind of share (and forcing the bigger companies to react also), can it help the forward earnings of the PC technology infrastructure?<< Not in my book- But stock prices don't seem to be following my book. <g> Heck, it wouldn't surprise me to see emachines move up to 1st place. Americans love a bargain. (see WMT) Did you read Fleckenstein tonight? A very strong Chicago Purchasing Managers' number basically precipitated the selling, and by strong I mean there were some ugly price data. It was the fifth-largest prices-paid gain since 1960 Isn't Inflation a MYTH? <g>

YAY 4 April! Although if that frickin POS SCH splits, either I will be happy with double the contracts and half the points out of the money, or I am going to feel like someone got medievil on my ass. I will strike down upon the with furious vengeance..... Why is it that a stock goes up 10 points on analyst near term upgrades, it falls only 4 points when they come in light? How come $1.00 in earnings cost $100 - $10,000? How come it feels like someone took a combat boot and kicked me in my groin? How come I don't get paid $100 in commissions at work for every $1 I sell?
