| TOP PICK | 7.630 | Ian Ainsworth | In almost every area that’s hot in terms of technology, so you are riding the edge of new technology by owning this one. One of the best technology companies. | 2006-11-09 | |
| BUY | 4.010 | David Burrows | If he were looking at a hardware company he would look more at some of the specialty chip companies. This company makes chips that go into broadband wireless devices. There is burgeoning demand for broadband data. There is very good growth there. | 2006-01-04 | |
| DON'T BUY | 4.850 | Reza Samahin | Unfortunately, it's in a commodity market so it's difficult for them to make any excess returns. Treat as a trading stock but don't hold as a long-term stock. | 2004-08-19 | |
| VAGUE | 5.950 | Larry Berman CFA, CMT, CTA | A fairly choppy/volatile stock. Has had a number of " bad news" swings. Will continue to be range bound. | 2004-05-31 | |

| DON'T BUY | 6.200 | Robert McWhirter | In the bottom 25% of their database. Quarterly earnings estimate is negative. Sales are down. Not cheap. | 2003-09-16 | |
| BUY | 6.090 | Larry Berman CFA, CMT, CTA | Has a nice base pattern. If it broke below the August low, that would be very damaging technically. Look for a retest of the June high. If risk/reward is better than 2 to 1, it’s a good trade to make. | 2003-09-15 | |
| DON'T BUY | 6.350 | Paul O'Neil | Storage is a good growth business, but getting a lot of competition. There are cheaper ways to buy storage. | 2003-09-08 | |
