JAJAJA....LMAO at your A.G post #89786 on SI. Your best piece of work in quite some time. The best part is -- it probably hit the nail on the head! Easy on the suction Mr. G. we don't want any "irrational exuberance" to settle in. Lynn, I'll check out your INTC thread when I get a chance. S

Elwood I don't spend any time at the zoo. I missed the old SI grandfather clause. I go to R.Bull a little. IMO all the boards are very quiet -- IMO there are many portfolios that have been toasted, hence nothing to write about. I do think you are correct about MDell and the bomb -- it will be sugar coated with market share gains. S

Oink, Oink yourself Elwood. I did my part -- traded the ancient 100mhz Dell for the CPQ Presario 7000US 1.2Ghz Athlon at BestBuy yesterday. CPQ just started a rebate on the 17" monitor and printer. The rest of the cash came from the $$ I saved lurking for 75,000 CPQ posts on SI -- yep WAAAYYY TOO CHEAP! Nightwriter thanks for the Athlon tip. I did try to spec a Dell I didn't get with in $500 of the configuration I bought. Also NightW/El, if you are going to dabble in TA (the stock market TA) Try TC2000 by Wordon. I'll try to answer any ?'s you might have about it. I had to be Cheap -- I bought back my covered calls a week to soon....."never buy CPQ over $30/sh....in at $31.50.....have traded the Leaps and may do it again after Dell week....S

El, the rabbit will sqeal like this pig - Jimbo will be here before post #50 JAJAJAJAJA! S.
