LindyBill,

I agree with you on how futile it is to find the right price to buy a QCOM. Yesterday, it was at 147 and like a knucklehead I put in a limit order at 145 (I will NEVER learn!). It then ran to 160. Today, I wake up and its at 170. So I put in a limit order at 164 for two hundred shares (see, I NEVER learn!). Luckily, today I got it...it then ran to 170 again. Could I get it cheaper tomorrow or next week? Maybe. Could it run away from me? Good chance. Will it be worth ALOT more in 5 years making a 20-30 point buyin price negligible? Hopefully.

JB, who is STILL waiting for CMGI to pull back (it's up 250 points since I started waiting!)
