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
