Freeus, yes it would be long term It's good to see that you are looking at QWST long-term. Like you, I'm heavily into DELL and AOL and QWST is one of my "bushel basket" of internet infrastructure stocks. I've invested in the underpinnings of the internet (bandwidth, routers, etc.) because of the difficulties I've had in evaluating the business that sit on top of that stuff, like the portals or the auction sites. My take on QWST is that it has a very good chance of doing very well, given the strength of its management team and apparent overall goals. I think that if you choose a few good infrastructure stocks, you will probably have at least one good winner in the long term. Best of luck with your investments, as always. -musea

Ever since the first of the year, I watched with fascination as QWST rose from about 45 to its present height, all the while encouraging my sister, my granddaughters and even my landlady to invest in the stock. What an idiot! Finally, I bit the bullet and bought my entry position at 82. The MORAL--Carpe Diem. Buy in and prosper. RSSheldon
