    • I own one. I got a terrific price on it, and it's
      the EXACT same thing as a DELL computer, with the
      exception of the lettering on the plastic container that
      surrounds it.

      Great computer and the service at PC
      Connection can't be beat. Look for this company to take away
      a LOT of Dell and Gateway's customers! With a P/E
      ratio of only 13.xx%, look for this stock to go up big
      in the coming quarters.

    • I heard about a new site.
      They have been
      nailing some hot picks.
      I watched the last two weeks
      and it looked like there may be some
      truth in this
      one so I got in on the last one and actually
      made
      some money. If any of you have heard the same rumors,
      I
      can tell you the last three weeks have been
      scores for sure.
      Here is the address.
      Go to
      message #70 for the ticker symbol JAX
      for a hot link
      to this site.

    • green_peace_now,

      I would urge you to
      reconsider your decision not to post again. There is
      absolutely no shame in doing so and posting again in the
      future.

      I found your last post delightful (except for the
      part about not posting again) and would consider it a
      loss to not be able to gain insight from your views in
      the future. It's even OK if we disagree
      <smile>! But really, please do post.

      It would seem
      that we share the same admiration of PCCC as a
      company, and though as an investor I would love to see the
      price per share start up and never stop, the company
      remains the best in the industry (in my humble opinion)
      either way.

      I once had an order I needed filled
      immediately! Such was the urgency that I drove from my home
      over to Marlow to deliver the check (I wanted to pay
      by check). The receptionist at the desk immediately
      called the sales department when I arrived and within
      moments the "Manager" came practically running down the
      stairs to greet me. After making me feel like the most
      important customer the company had he ran upstairs with my
      check (as it was late in the day and he wanted to get
      me overnight delivery) to verify he could get me
      next day service. Within moments he was back, said he
      would personally see my order through, shook my hand
      and gave me his personal word I would have my order
      the next morning. The next morning it was "in my
      hand".

      What readers my not realize is that this case was not
      an exception to the rule. It was the rule. This is
      how seriously PC Connection cares about its customers
      and their satisfaction. I say this to potential
      investors: PC Connection is a great company to invest in
      whether long term or short term. That's just the way I
      feel, not to mention their excellent growth and
      financial performance.

      green_peace_now, please
      stay.

      Your friend,

      egims

    • Do you think the EPIQ PC's will do as well as PC Connection's MDS1000?

    • lesson #1.I think greenie has fallen in love and
      only has tunnel vision.There is a reason that we are
      at this trading range and it has to do with the
      company.PR IR you pick one but if it was as good as you said
      we would be in triple digits.I believe in PCCC but
      it has done nothing to excite me other than becoming
      predictable.EGIMS has this puppy down.buy it then sell it.HISTORY
      REPEATS lesson#2

    • Hello friends,

      I plan to refrain from
      posting in the future because it seems to accomplish
      nothing. I do however believe that there are many other
      people that think the same way that I do. The internet
      stocks have been great for many people including myself
      at times however I think we will see many people
      loose a lot of money from these overpriced securities.
      It is quite simple you need profit to survive in any
      business and many of these Internet companies will never
      see a profit. The executives with heavy stock options
      and the investor that buys these companies at the
      right time will certainly make money but at some point
      these e-companies will fall out of favor in the eyes of
      the investor. I believe this will happen after a few
      start folding. Some companies such as PC Connection
      consider the Internet a great and exciting new way to sell
      product but not the only way to sell product. In order to
      survive in the computer industry for approximately 17
      years you really need to be able to see the overall
      picture. Try to think of how many companies have come and
      gone in the computer industry in the past 17 years and
      maybe you will have an appreciation of how special this
      company really is. Their Internet presence is what it
      should be, growing and profitable. If you want them to
      tell you that PCC is all about the internet, they will
      probably tell you it isn�t and if you ask them 10 years
      from now they will give you the same response.
      The
      owners, (Pat Gallop and Dave Hall) are truly incredible
      people that care deeply about the future of PC
      Connection. They gave up a large portion of their lives to
      building (in my opinion) one of the greatest high-tech
      companies in the world. This was accomplished through moral
      leadership and a keen understanding of the industry. It
      seems now that PC Connection wins so many awards that
      it becomes expected instead of appreciated when the
      awards a granted.
      I�ll get back on the topic now. I
      own investments in many firms (mostly high-tech) and
      have found that I have so much more information
      available than I did in the past. If you are able to post
      messages on this board you are also capable of gathering
      all or almost all of the public information that is
      available on a public company. This instant gratification
      can cause a good person to be unreasonable when it
      comes to communicating with a public company. I don�t
      even need to look at stock prices anymore all I need
      to do is read the message boards and I can tell how
      the stock is doing. If there is heavy criticism of
      the IR/PR you know the stock is down. It must be
      similar to being a coach of a professional franchise.
      Most of the information that you are looking for is
      right there on the Internet. Companies generally
      publish information for their investors on the Internet
      so you can see it immediately. If the information
      that you are looking for is not available than it
      probably is not being disclosed yet.
      In closing�
      Please, no negative replies to this post I really mean no
      offense by what I have posted� as I stated earlier I will
      be �refraining� from posting to this board in the
      future. I�m sure we will have a record breaking
      preliminary report in the near future and hopefully a long
      upward trend for the stock.

      I wish you all the
      best.

      BTW ; AOL is dead in the long run, broadband will
      probably eliminate them. Short-term outlook is quite
      positive. Happy investing!!!!!!!!!
      Also, ISPO680, I
      like my nickname you authored� greanie (cool name, I
      wonder if it is available� good luck friend)

    • How about you pump some more money in Pccc too? Or do you have more brains than money? I would guess the latter.

    • Forgive me oh illustrious long-term investor!What
      I would like PR/IR to do is what they are supposed
      to do-increase public exposure-interest in their
      stock.Internet aspect of PCCC has been sadly neglected by PR.As
      a matter of fact,it has been downplayed.Tracey
      Turner informed me that PCCC is (SO MUCH MORE) than an
      internet company.Maybe so, but that does not help the
      stock price-which I assume that you would like to see
      rise.How about you sink a big wad of money into this
      stock,maybe it will go up and I will get out.Why not?
      According to you you can,t lose!May have to hold 10 years,
      but,what the heck, right?

    • your post was right on. sounds like some mo' players with more money than brains.
      have a great day
