BUY

Very well positioned. Success came when they refocused on their consumer computer business and started taking market share away from Dell (DELL-Q).

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Aug 23/06. Up 40%.) The computer group in 2003/2004 had really under performed the market but this one was going against the group.

DON'T BUY

2% positive differential Not enough difference to buy.

HOLD

There are other areas of technology that he would prefer, but if you own it, Hold.

HOLD

Was a great value play in the $20 area. Good company and very diversified. Expect you will make a 9%-10% return.

BUY

After years of under performing, started hitting on a number of cylinders after it restructured. Have beaten estimates 8 quarters in a row. Have been cutting costs and growing their market share.

DON'T BUY

Sold it in the mid to high $30’s. A strong business. Sort of regained #1 market share. May be at the top of its cycle. Fully valued.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Sept 22/05. Up 98.2%.) Very focused. Continuing to buy.

BUY

Becoming a much better run company. Their operations are better.

DON'T BUY

His concern is that their top line is growing very slowly. Mid single digits at best the last few quarters, year after year. Managed to beat estimates on the earnings side so obviously is controlling costs. Are you cutting into your future when you do that?

TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Sept 22/05. Up 24.8%.) A story of cost-cutting, margins and revenue growth. Cost cutting is working so margins are increasing and they are competing very effectively on price. They are also seeing growth across their business units. When a big company like this starts to turn around, it can turn around for a long time.

BUY

They had a fantastic quarter. Relatively inexpensive. Have a lot of cash and continue to grow.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Apr 10/06. Down 2.5%.) Has held in remarkably well against a very tough technology market. It’s in the midst of a turnaround. There is not only cost cutting, but good prospects of revenue growth.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Apr 10/06. Down 10%.) Still likes. Has hung in remarkably well compared to any of the technology stocks. In the middle of a very strong turnaround in their business. Could see a good pickup in revenues.

TOP PICK

Was a chronic underperformer for a number of years. Some of the restructuring efforts have really started to take hold. Had two quarters in a row were they have beaten the estimates. Feels we are into a 2/3 years cycle.
