Frank, Yes, both of my orders to purchase the Q were executed. In my taxable portfolio my market order was executed at $144. Because I was using up all the remaining cash in my IRA, I used a limit order of $139 and it was filled at that price. Each order approximated 6% of my portfolio, totalling 12%. Unless the fundies change in ways I can't imagine, the taxable portion will be held forever. If the stock spikes enormously in the short term, I will likely sell the shares in my IRA. Am I the only one noticing that no one on the Qualcomm thread ever mentions the measly margins? --Mike Buckley
