The HUH? was rhetorical...I was not seeking help.......after listening to CNBC's summary.....that companies with strong services and storage will tend to do better, and then they listing Gateway as their top pick....well, that just doesnt make sense...Still doesnt... Gateway was recommended in the article for different reasons (which you fleshed out), but CNBC failed to mention them, leading the listener to assume that Gateway is strong in services and storage (which all following the industry know not to be the case)... Here's the broader point, Gary. Not everyone (certainly not I) have the time or desire/inclination to read every single article out there. Sometimes you listen (and some people rely) on snippets of information. CNBC has a journalistic responsibility to accurately report information..and their summary of the Barron's article, taken in isolation, could have lead the listener to the wrong idea about what the article was about...Had I spent the time to read the article, I would have understoood it's points...but, IMO, CNBC should not report incomplete summaries which distort the meaning of articles upon which they are basing their stories...IMO, they did in this case.. Clear?
