    • Buy, Sell or Hold: Garmin Defends Its Market Leadership [view article]
      I think the best marketing too; Garmin could have is free software updates for already sold units. It is rather "galling" to have paid $1200.00 for their best mobile land unit and then be told that an update would cost an additional $200.00 per year to stay current.
      They already have the software,(developed for newer models), it would cost them very little to make it available on-line to former customers to down load to their units and would give a "warm fuzzy" feeling to former customers knowing that the company was not trying to gouge them further. After all, you can now buy a new unit with current software and many new bells and whistles for about the same price, or little more, than the new software update.
      I think that when I am ready to invest in the new bells and whistles, I will look for a company who sells the unit with free annual updates for about ten years.
      New units could come with the new software in July, to give new owners some advantage and Christmas gifts would have the new software. The update could be made available to former customers in January. Tell me where I am wrong.

      I have a key labeled 'shift' , but none labeled 'SHIFT'. Anyway, both FRO and NAT are seemingly good dividend stocks. Sep 15 03:22 AM
    • How GM Can, and Should, Save Saab [view article]
      Me thinks the GM exec's are too busy counting their bonus money to worry about making a better product. As long as the company makes enough money to fund their outlandish bonus each year they need not concern themselves with shareholder needs. The bonus boys controll the vote. Mar 19 01:51 PM
    • Jim Cramer's Mad Money Lightning Round, 3/13/08: Sweet and Sour Apple [view article]
      I guess every stock is a "buy,buy,buy"... at times and the same stocks are "sell, sell, sell" at other times. I have bought AMD at 25 and I have sold AMD at 6.70, but the shares I bought at 25 I sold at 30, and the shares I sold at 6.70 I bought at 6.50. It seems it's all a matter of timing, my friend.
