Susan, Congratulations on a portfolio 909! You do remember the omen the other day of the 909 post? More Techride magic. I should be able to get some good research done soon and I'm hunting cheap to moderate priced targets ready to do a 909 or two. Then again I could be lazy and just mouch off of your great picks and those of other Techride posters. 909S2U BLUE

Susan, I'm loaded with CPQ as I thought CPQ would see the wisdom in spinning off AltaVista at this time. I try not to tell myself, "I should of bet on a sure thing, I should of bought more GNET." Problem is I've been ruined by my own good stock picking as I found GNET so cheap it is hard to buy at three digits even though it is worth it. I bought my first shares of GNET when it first hit the teens. It was a TYPE II then and at the time my investment was high risk. Since I try not to be too greedy, I sold those shares when it ran to 39 for the first time. I bought those shares back at 24 (several times). Soon there after, I figured out the GNET 24 Rule. Which Joan, Moon and others can tell you, I posted and used all the time. Here is the really funny part. Back then GNET was lucky to trade 10 or 20,000 shares in a day. I can remember days when by noon it had traded 5,000 shares or less. What was fun about GNET then was how I often moved the bid or ask with a phone call and when 500 shares got traded I could say those are my 500 shares and know they were. I thought of this earlier when you posted to Joe about the "baby". GNET has been my baby for some time. Fond memories. Thanks. 909 BLUE
