re: I'm talking about Lebed and showing the relevence, not Elgindy
Section 17(a) of the Securities Act and Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5
Actually, you weren't. You were originally replying to an anonymous MB poster (whose post, to which you were replying, was deleted):

I think you are promoting a pump and dump

It was later that you brought up Lebed in an effort to deflect my refutation of your original point.
As for Anthony Elgindy, I was replying directly to an assertion of "poiuyt20011" that Elgindy was convicted of a pump and dump scheme (which he was not):

If it is not a criminal offense, then why do people go to jail for doing such things?
Anthony ring a bell or any other of the many slimeballs that used MB's, Blogs, internet sites to falsely pump a stock, telling people to buy when they were selling?
Why are so many of these people in jail if it is only unethical but not illegal?

You should review the charges and indictment of Anthony Elgindy. He was NOT charged nor convicted for his pump & dump activities. Here's the summary:
Elgindy pleaded guilty to the mail fraud charge in February, after he was charged in a nine-count insurance fraud indictment. (TSC wrote about his plea in February.)
The indictment had alleged that Elgindy received compensation from securities firms while he was also fraudulently receiving disability benefits from an insurance company. The mail fraud charge stemmed from the method of delivery for the disability checks.

Glad to be able to help you catch up.

Section 17(a) of the Securities Act addresses clearing agencies and transfer agents. Hardly deals with anonymous MB posters.
Section 10(b) deals with insider trading or a company manipulating stock prices. Hardly deals with anonymous MB posters.
Section 10(b) is codified at 15 U.S.C. § 78j(b).
It's hard to overstate the breadth and utility of section 10(b,) and Rule 10b-5, in the pursuit of securities litigation. Rule 10b-5 has been employed to cover insider trading cases, but has also been used against companies for price fixing (artificially inflating or depressing stock prices through stock manipulation), bogus company sales to increase stock price, and even a company's failure to communicate relevant information to investors. Many plaintiffs in the securities litigation field plead violations of section 10(b) and Rule 10b-5 as a "catchall" allegation, in addition to violations of the more specific antifraud provisions in the '34 Act.

Bruce & all,
Report on motherboard transplant from Dell (after a failed USB port).
Dell's next day on site business warranty is very good. I live way out in the boonies, Dell contractor made the 1 1/2 hr. drive and had the MB swapped out and was gone in 20 minutes. System back in tip-top shape.
Just saying I am wrong doesn't cut it. Show me a law stating that some anonymous poster pumping & dumping is a criminal offense. You made the claim. Please back it up or rescind.
I see you couldn't cite a law. I didn't think you could. It is unethical, but that's not a criminal offense.
re: it is illegal to say buy on message boards and at the same time sell
Unethical, perhaps, but I'll challenge you to cite a law which states it is illegal for an anonymous layman to do this.
re: You're missing the point, 2-3% is not enough to price the rest of your products at $266 and under unless you are only really interested in pricing your competitor out of the market.
Not that I am saying this is Intel's motive in setting pricing, but Intel could price AMD out of the market. The converse, unfortunately for AMD, is not true.
That's what really has your panties in a bunch, isn't it?
re: We believe that our unique technology is so innovative that our customers will be able to transform their old networks into state-of-the-art broadband powerhouses with just a simple upgrade.

Thanks! I'll get a new motherboard under warranty, but I will consider the USB PCI card. Just wonder what caused the failure in the first place?
Thanks, Bruce. That was my understanding as well. But I still cannot account for a fried USB port after 11 months of use. Guess I'll have to chalk it up to quality defect + infant mortality.
Anyway, a new motherboard is on it's way.
re: If SULJA proves themselves without a doubt as a possible NASDAQ candidate
That is a gigantic "IF". Gigantic beyond the realm of probability.
Bruce,
Thanks for that link! My machine shows "interesting" entries for the USB host cortrollers in device manager:
- Intel(R) 802801G (ICH7 Family) USB Universal Host Controller-27C8
- Intel(R) 802801G (ICH7 Family) USB Universal Host Controller-27C9
- Intel(R) 802801G (ICH7 Family) USB Universal Host Controller-27CA
- Intel(R) 802801G (ICH7 Family) USB Universal Host Controller-27CB
- Intel(R) 802801G (ICH7 Family) USB2 Enhanced Host Controller-27CC
Hmmm ... do you think plugging a certain USB device into one of the rear ports could have toasted it?
By the way, of the five "USB Root Hub" entries in device manager, one will not allow me to enable or disable the port (the drop down selection is not available).
I did the complete troubleshoot routine that Dell would have done before I called them. Saved a lot of time. They determined I needed a new motherboard, that the USB port was fried. They will send the motherboard and a tech should call Tues/Wed to schedule a warranty visit to swap boards.
The reason I asked the question above is that I don't want to fry another one. Interestingly enough, what was plugged into the USB port that failed was an optical mouse.
Thanks. Yup, all are enabled.
Bruce & all,
I'm usually here offering advice. This time, I need help. My wife's business desktop is a Dell Dimension 5150/E510 Pentium D machine, 11 months old. It has 5 USB 2.0 ports in the back, 2 in the front.
Yesterday, she reported that her mouse wasn't working after booting the machine. It's plugged into one of the USB ports in the back of the machine. It worked fine last weekend, no software or hardware has been installed since then, no system settings have been changed.
I swapped the mouse and keyboard USB plugs and, sure enough, the keyboard wouldn't work.
The USB ports in device manager show all to be functioning properly. I booted in safe mode and they still appear to be functional. I then booted into bios setup and set the default bios settings (in case something got whacked there). I have searched for updated USB drivers, I have the most recent ones. I can see no physical damage to the suspect USB port. Since nothing has been added/changed for a long time on this machine, I receive the message "System cannot be restored to XX date, no changes have been made" if I try a System Restore, even going back months.
Since the unit is still under the original warranty for 24 days (and I extended it 2 years yesterday), I have a service request into Dell (but who knows how long it will take them to reply!)
I'm an old hand with PC's, both hardware and software, and this is driving me nuts! I know I must be missing something.
Anybody got any ideas??
If you've gotten this far, thanks for reading!

If you decide to stay in Real Estate, you may want to go for the ePro designation (the GEEK designation). The course is online (totally), i was able to knock out the entire course in 8 hours one Sunday:

I save all my transaction docs (ZipForms) on a dedicated flash thumb drive and also back up those files on the external HD. That way, whether i am on my own computer or on someone elses (like the office computer), I always have my docs available.

I am also a REALTOR. I upgraded my notebook last November from an old Sony Vaio Pentium 3 (It WAS a workhorse, never had a problem with it. Just became outdated.)
Here is what I purchased, and I'm quite happy with it. Order from Dell small business group, not the home group if you go the Dell route. I got the external HD from Dell, as well (not on this invoice):

Mr. Sohn currently serves as an independent consultant to the high technology industry.
sue,
My primary computer is a Core2Duo notebook. I run a 160GB external hard drive (connects via USB 2.0) and back up my full system plus all my files. This way, if I have a HD failure, I can restore my full system, including files. If only a file gets corrupted, I can go to that backup and restore the file only.
My backup HD is an IOMEGA unit and I use their backup software. The Casper software Bruce mentioned before is also good.
This method of backup is inexpensive insurance, IMO. Especially if you use your computer for critical tasks such as trading or doing corp. work at home.
FYI, Young Sohn left Intel 14 years ago..
From August 1983 to January 1993, he was director of marketing at Intel Corporation

re: I feel that this stock has the potential to make many people rich
Well, I certainly hope you aren't performing this IR work pro bono.
The Classmate PC does contain an Intel processor and chipset (and probably an Intel 802.11 device), but it is an Intel reference design. Intel passes the reference design to PC OEMs (perhaps regional OEMs, not sure about that part) who actually manufacture the PC.
Intel does not manufacture the Classmate PC. It is a reference design manufactured by PC OEMs:
The Classmate PC is a reference design by Intel that will be manufactured by many PC OEMs around the world.

Intel Capital Pumped USD 10mn into Legend Silicon

Thank you, John Birch.
re: take some reading classes
It is you who should take a class in reading comprehension. I did not reference "illegal" threats. I posted: "legal threats". As in stating a legal claim (slander) that you cannot back up with evidence (recording).
Capice?
And please, chill. You brought this on yourself with an unfounded allegation.
Nor do I know you. That doesn't matter. When anyone starts making legal threats they cannot corroborate, I am going to take them to task. And I will continue to do so.
Fine. I'll assume you have a recording of this person saying something that defamed the other to offer up as evidence.
re: she could be guilty of both libel and slander
Do you know that this person verbally defamed the other person? If not, brush up on the difference between liable and slander:
Libel is written defamation and slander is oral defamation. In an action for libel one does not have to prove damages. They are presumed. Whereas in slander aside from four situations, one has to prove actual loss. In slander the law does not presume that the publication caused the plaintiff any damage. The plaintiff has to prove special damage except in the following four situations:
- the words charged that the plaintiff committed a criminal offence
- the words impute that the plaintiff has certain contagious diseases, or
- the words impute unchastity or adultery to any woman or girl, or
- the words are calculated disparage the plaintiff in any office profession, trade, calling or business held or carried on by him at the time of the publication.
Doesn't make any sense at all, based on what I know. BWTFDIK??
It has been a LOOOOONG time since Intel built a greenfield fab.

re: If WAVX's software is no different from the others out there and so easily duplictated how come Dell, Seagate, Intel, Gateway and 5 out of 6 TPM providers are paying WAVX for it?
Possibly because it is not worth the cost and resources to do it internally. At least, judging by the financials of who decided to devote the cost and resources to same.
I give up. Logic clearly is not your strong suit.
I would surmise that any poster who comments on a stock, ipso facto, has an interest in the topic.
Further, if they think the stock is "bad news", why would you logically think they would post positive comments?
