Are you still living in 2000? How many percent of your gynaecologist clients are on Internet? Very convincing.... Sory, couldn't help, but you are arguing with yourself. When I told you about tax write-offs that are in effect since late XX century, you 'explain' to me what _should_ happen. That's exactly what already had happened - market share shrinks. We are no talking about belief vs belief, we are talking money. You did not even know about that aspect, did you? But you have to sound very authorative. Then you go on with some analyst as an argument. Better talk to an APPL options MM at CBOE if you are that smart. I was a spoo MM on CME floor and used Newton 2100 as my calc pad for arbs. I was the only one with Newton there, so you can ask people around and they'd tell you. Any PR VP learned about a year ago to exctract 'dot-com' and 'analyst' out of any promo schpiel, Apple hasn't done this with iMac and it's Apple's problem. Do you use iMac? Are you 12 y. o.? the fucking baby boomers with their farsightedness can't see anything on the poor quality screens. So many techies are clueless when it comes to finances, and god saw it's good. they have no clue what financial classes are, what correlation with R/R is, etc. keep repeating after Stevie, other repeat after JFC, Shiva, Buddha and Vadimchik Zlotnikov. btw, you could look at maccentral.com if you ARE qualified by some authority to talk about this, and see that even they have confused themselves with 'analsts' blabber. The only difference betwen you and any analyst is how to get there. And please don't double post to me and the list. It's about time for an Architect to learn a few things. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
