I liked this part best:

""We're the only one that has really connected users. This is really what the soul of the company is about," the chief executive said. "And you're going to see this more and more in how we choose to position the company and how we choose to orient the future of our business."

to those of you that are a little pissed at me right now just know there is a reason to my madness.

i'm trying to tell you what to do but i really don't want to see anyone get hurt in this market.....i never had anyone hold my hand and i had to learn many mistakes the hard way....so instead of taking it personal keep an open mind and learn from my mistakes and you just might have an extra edge in this market.

as soon as you get cocky and think you can do no wrong is when you will get your ass handed to you on a silver platter....i lost over 30K in one day for a stupid mistake ....over 60K in my first few months of trading so take it for what it's worth.

love me for my picks hate me for my bad calls...i know all to well what this feels like......when everyone made money on fore i could do no wrong,,,,all of a sudden i say a few things that you don't like and i'm an asshole...right?

take note to what i'm saying and you might last in this market...you can read all you want from other people posting how great of traders they are ..having win after win but they are full of shit....this is a tough business to be in but a very profitable one if you leave your stupid ego at the door and keep an use your head.

nuff said and i'm off to an appointment

I liked this line:

"The chief executive, however, refused to comment on the
acquisition rumors concerning 3Com."
