To All Longs: Today's activity was very reasurring.....the rally we saw was nothing but SHORT covering due to no interest rate hike comments from Greenspan. What I found reasurring was that the SHORT's set the support at 107 today. Meaning, the bleeding was held to 107. That said, we stand at 114 only few points from support. With earnings a few weeks ahead...does anybody really believe we go lower? Come on. Perspective: At 114 we are roughly 7 pts ABOVE set support of 107. Perspective: At 114 we are roughly 78pts BELOW set high of 192. Question is: 7pts risk........for the potential gain of 78pts? Question is: Downside risk of 6% VS Upside Potential of 68%? You all know were I stand. Best Regards, Hector

Excite@Home mulls dial-up strategy Interesting. Somebody fill me in on this. I thought that one of the things ATHM would do is set up a big dial up business and then take over the AT&T dial up trade. Is this the beginning of that? There used to be a lot of talk about this being a natural development after merger.

Dial-up strategy: Real world needs. Most homes have multiple tv's so that one can view their favorite shows conveniently from different locations. Contrary to this, most homes have or will have multiple internet access devices along with multiple ISP accounts, not for the multi-location convenience but for the multi-user convenience. eg 15 yo incessantly chatting on AOL community and using their user friendly email, 9 yo visiting game sites, spouse buying and selling on ebay, and myself posting on SI etc. I will use Roadrunner/TimeWarner for high speed cable access(local), and maintain AOL for the kids. Ultimately, the convenience of one company/one bill with all needs met competitively is most appealing. ATHM is positioned to do this if they pursue dial-up.
