if your new to stocks......this is NOT the board/stock to start out with.......this thing is like a venus fly trap, you land on it because it looks so inviting and tempting, then it closes up around you and you cant move. this thing is dangerous.....
sadly, i would suggest going the opposite direction.....start out with stocks like.....yahoo, apple, black and decker, ebay, etc. they are a little less risky (except bear sterns LOL) you might lose 2% one day, but you wont lose 75% or more like you can with penny stocks....and its really easy to do that too if your not too sure whats going on. and dont forget.......
read read read! not here though! i suggest to start reading on www.investopedia.com great place to learn.
