Clearly the far more important factor for tech is the relative strength of the economy. It trumps the dollar situation. But if the dollar improves, it does take the bloom off the rose for some of the sales numbers that companies have reported.

David Joy

I think tech equals growth.

Kevin Landis

Tech and telecom are undergoing a substantial re-evaluation in the marketplace.

Ben Hock

If Nasdaq got involved, there would be more momentum for a tech market in Europe.

Martin Brooker

High-tech is a good way to get them interested. But if they visit and can't find a parking place and the school is not hospitable, then all that hard work is negated.

Charles Nolan

All three major tech stocks that reported after the bell yesterday beat estimates and raised guidance, and were certainly a positive shot in the arm for tech investors.

Michael Sheldon

Creative partnerships like this wireless project strengthen Kissimmee's reputation as a tech-savvy city, ... It adds convenience to the daily lives of our residents and visitors and enhances our downtown business district.

Gail Hamilton

These are issues that transcend previous party distinctions, where you have a very strong coalition between republicans who are willing to deregulate and do whatever it takes to get government out of business's way, and new democrats, who are very tech-friendly.

James Lucier

Internet-heavy funds took some of the biggest hits yesterday, but most people watching the tech area have long thought that there's probably been some froth among those stocks.

Christine Benz

He is working very hard -- he and his staff -- to impose their will on the culture of wrestling at Virginia Tech. And it is occurring. Slowly.

Jon Jaudon

There is life outside the high-tech.

Marshall Acuff

People in high-tech industry have to have the ability to change their manufacturing processes overnight in order to compete with people in China, India and other states. This regulation potentially could hold them up for as much as six months or a year. That is a disaster for them.

Roger Ferland

Their grant has given us a generous number of digital cameras to provide the classroom advantage for learning how to use them. This is perfect for those who have been wanting to switch to digital but are put off by instruction booklets that can seem way too high-tech or just don't answer all their questions. Plus, we have lots of printed handouts to reinforce everything they learn in class.

Sherry Arnold

There's a bit of cash swilling around, but at the moment one gets the distinct impression that people are too worried about the outlook for earnings and the scope for further profit warnings for the tech sector.

Tony Jackson

Tech is performing better today (Wednesday).

Tom Shrader

The suggestion that all of these powerful and capable tools, especially authoring tools, and the support of the world's leading tech company, has been a negative for HD DVD, is simply absurd.

Mark Knox

There's a panicky feeling that the telecom weakness could spread across tech in general.

Tim Heekin

We're here now. We have a home, and we're finally relieved to know we have a set schedule for now and know what we're going to do next, ... We have somewhere to call home and we appreciate Louisiana Tech and Ruston for opening their arms to us.

Anthony Cannon

Tech earnings are improving, and the reality is that stock prices always move ahead of fundamentals. That's what they do. They are predictive instruments.

Todd Campbell

We're expecting an outstanding game with Lane Tech. It's a game both teams have been really looking forward to. Hopefully, it will live up to its expectations.

Kenny Fullman

Every opportunity I get, I try to make the most out of it. I'm looking forward to my future here at Tech. I see only good things happening in the future and I can't wait until they come.

Branden Ore

We've got to use this game today and take it to Georgia Tech.

Brad Chalk

I think maybe there is a small tech startup companies out there where perhaps maybe the owner has horses and I think something like that would be an ideal person.

Frank Stronach

[But one observer expects a pause.] I suspect we're really reaching a bubble in tech stock conditions, ... It is a herd mentality. You run the risk of really being whipsawed here.

Peter Andersen

You have Taiwan Semi saying that future orders look weak and that's indicative of a lot of companies. You just had Sun Microsystems (SUNW: down $0.35 to $3.70) return to profitability, but then take it back for the next quarter. All these comments show that any tech recovery is probably pushed back until 2003.

Walter Winnitzki

I thought, I guess, at the 5:30 point in our ballgame, Jacques (Jones) gets a 'tech,' and (from there) it went downhill.

Ronnie Courtney

That's the only way Texas Tech scores points is when they are out there on the field. If we can come out and have a high-powered offense on Saturday, that will help out our defense a lot.

Victor Mann

The market saw through the Fed's inspiring comments about the economic recovery because it moved to an easing bias. We also had some poor earnings news from U.S. tech and media names after Wall Street closed.

Alia Baig

We have six employees now. I'll probably be looking for another tech shortly.

David Woodsmith

We're tapping into nostalgia -- on the adult-toy aspect, on the low-tech aspect of it. Yet it delivers an image better than what you can get in any medium.

Michael Kaplan

A lot of the tech selling is over. And the considerable strength of the U.S. economy is intact, interest rates are low, inflation is not a specter, so money continues to flow into the market.

Arnie Owen

You now have options in suburbia that never existed before. If you're nomadic in the tech world, you're really moving from one suburb to another.

Joel Kotkin

This is Tech, so we've got a lot of smart people.

Reggie Ball

Deteriorating economic conditions and the rapid decline in the high-tech and other durable goods industries have increasingly affected FedEx Express volumes.

Alan Graf

When I first came here, I had no idea what I was getting myself into. It was definitely a good choice as far as me coming to Tech.

Taurean Henderson

[The metrics used by many high-tech analysts today] are not what analysts normally look at, ... there's so many metrics that we're dealing with in this era that differ from creating light bulbs or auto parts or something that's very tangible.

Louis Thompson

For the first couple of months of the year, tech stocks were trading more on hope than anything else, ... But as the year progresses, it is starting to appear that the hope was not justified.

John Rutledge

If you believe that higher interest rates will put a brake on the economy, the whole tech sector is highly susceptible because companies are going to be spending on tech-related items depending on where the economy is going.

Hans Olsen

We have become more involved in the political process because we want our views heard on public policy issues that are important to the company and the entire high tech industry. Individuals at Microsoft support candidates, but the company does not endorse anyone.

Jim Cullinan

We've been down at the start in a couple games during the season. We just knew that we didn't play yesterday and Texas Tech played yesterday, so they were kind of warmed up. We just had to come out there, get warmed up, get our offense going, and just kick it in gear.

Latoya Bond

There are not a lot of opportunities in tech that are wholly secular plays as opposed to cyclical plays, ... This is a great company and a great stock.

Scott Kessler

That's the same with any team because in those situations (the opposition's) whole play book is at their disposal. Tech has good wideouts as well, and they could burn us.

John Wells

[• Bring a buck : KU is hoping each fan attending Saturday's game against Louisiana Tech will bring a dollar to be donated to the Red Cross for Hurricane Katrina relief efforts.] This is an excellent way to underscore our efforts to aid the hurricane victims, ... We know our generous fans will do what they can to help.

Lew Perkins

We don't want to label those career-tech kids as not college bound when, in fact, many of them today are going to college. Over the years, we are going to have the lines blur in Ohio. When you have a career student, it is going to be harder and harder to point them out.

Pat Huston

We are very pleased that Tech Results is enjoying such tremendous success with Matrix. We are totally dedicated to ensuring that both Tech Results and their customers continue to be successful with Matrix.

Robert Poole

The high-tech arena is one of the areas where we are seeing the most growth in sabbatical programs. The concept has been around for a long time, but it's just crept its way into mainstream employment benefits in the last few decades.

Kristin Accipiter

These classes (through Tech Prep/College Prep) make me more aware of current trends.

Lynne Webb

Intel's news will have an impact on tech tomorrow, but it's going to be overshadowed by the jobs report.

Donald Selkin

That was clearly shown in the Virginia Tech game. This game is going to come down to execution. When you have three weeks to prepare for a team, they're going to be ready for you and we're going to be ready for them.

Brad Butler

I just told them if they played Michigan Tech volleyball and played the way they play every day in practice, that they'd take this to five. If we play Michigan Tech volleyball, there's not a lot of teams that can compete with us ... it's just learning that lesson.

Krista Mikesch

Silver Lake has been unquestionably the most successful of the current wave of tech buyout groups. They have shown that despite the apparent risks of these deals, considerable money can me made.

Josh Lerner

Tech stocks have performed quite well considering third quarter earnings weren't anything to write home about. We need to see some more positive data points for these stocks to go to the next level.

Rob Lloyd

It concerned many of us at Oracle that Harris would consider challenging Senator Allen, considering the great things he's done. We don't think tech issues are partisan issues at all. We as an industry should support our friends and stand by them.

Robert Hoffman

Palladium is used a lot for electronic purposes -- new usages now that are in the high-tech area. So it has that kind of a very substantive future.

Bette Raptopoulos

United Tech would look at GE's offer as a ceiling and they would be below that.

Kent Newcomb

The one thing I can say about Tech kids is they always give 100 percent to the very end.

Bob Lucas

This was a big psychological negative and I think it was one of those things that triggered off the decline in tech stocks last summer. So the removal of the threat of breakup is a positive psychological thing.

Alfred Kugel

I think what you're seeing today is a trend that you're going to continue to see through the end of the year: a rotational shift out of some of the big tech gainers, particularly the [semiconductors], as well as other small-caps, and into the less exciting stocks that haven't participated as much this year.

John Shields

The grant money helps, along with money from Sea Ray and from nearby developers, to create a high-tech system to scrub and clean the stacks so there isn't a problem.

Carl Laundrie

We have a target on our backs now. The way we looked at (defending national champion) LSU last year — we went out to prove to them we were good enough to beat them — now, game one against Georgia Tech, they're going to look at us with a target on our backs. Coaches will have their teams hyped to beat us. We have to work harder than they do to be prepared.

Carnell Williams

Hopefully we can get high tech jobs in northwest Pennsylvania.

William Powell

We started slow, but we once we started to play Michigan Tech volleyball everything started to work out. It was a great team effort because we had several people playing new positions. The girls stepped up to the challenge and I am very proud of the way they were able to earn a win on a very difficult road trip.

Krista Mikesch

Tech might get a little direction from how people trade Cisco today.

Marc Pado

Bringing Israeli technology to Akron will create jobs there. It will create a high tech environment that hasn't really been developed, and enable them to attract other companies to the area.

Brenda Zeitlin

The tech companies in the East Bay perhaps had products that were more useful to general types of businesses than really cutting-edge Internet products. Companies may want to buy products they can use in their business operations than a technology that lets you smell things over the Internet.

Sean Snaith

3D Systems is the kind of forward-looking company every community wants. We are extremely pleased that 3D Systems is relocating to Rock Hill and is building its new headquarters in Waterford Business Park. The career fair is a wonderful opportunity for those with 21st century skills to learn about the kinds of high-tech positions available at 3D Systems.

Dennis Merrell

Our team was ready to play. This is a very similar game to one that we lost to Georgia Tech on Saturday.

Brian O'connor

The big tech stocks are still where you have to be but I don't want to go overweight tech.

Knox Fuqua

Some investors are waiting for economic confirmation so they can purchase tech stocks, but by the time you get the confirmation, you've already missed out on most of the rally.

Bob Straus

I'm here to get an education and make a living at the same time. I think my teachers back at Tech understand, and I haven't had a problem with one of them yet. I try to work with them and be in class as much as I can.

Ryan Gray

Their members are concerned about the size of the footprint of the Tech Valley coalition.

John Scarano

Like Coach (Danny) Miles (at Oregon Tech).

David Michaelis

He combines high-tech means with very rudimentary means. That makes following his tracks a very daunting task.

Frank Cilluffo

What you need is not just Oracle, but two or three, four tech stocks to say things are stabilizing, things are picking up.

Arthur Cashin

After the bubble in the tech sector this spring, I expect the shares to get positively cheap before people start buying again, and we aren't there yet. My view is that we have more downside to come.

George Hodgson

One thing that will hurt international tech companies is that we don't expect the dollar to weaken much more so year-over-year revenue gains are going to be a lot tougher to come by.

Alan Loewenstein

All American companies that provide high tech products and also capital equipment for the Asian economic miracle are going to be hurt because there's an adjustment process that has to be gone through in Asia. It's going to take two to three years, and in the meantime they're going to see lower sales in Asia.

Roger Kubarych

We have made the offer to Tulane to make Louisiana Tech University and Ruston its home for as long as is needed.

Jim Oakes

I hoping to make it [decision] sometime next week. I love the academics at Tech. I can get a great degree there in engineering. Georgia has the ability to win it all next season. I think I can play early at both schools. It's going to be tough.

Calvin Johnson

We had a good weekend and a successful outing at Georgia Tech. We got consistent play out of Kristen Carroll and Lauren Moffett over the weekend which helped us succeed. Allison Weber has also stepped up and is playing well for us.

Joe Getzin

There was a period of time prior to the restoration, when shows were run by Venue Tech, they pretty much did their own shows. Costs were really prohibitive. I got impression they didn't really want outside promoters.

Bill Barr

My grades weren't what they should have been, so they sent me back to the ninth grade. I was glad, because I wanted to study music, and Cass Tech was second only to Juilliard. We studied all kinds of music, harmony and orchestration.

Gerald Wilson

Tech stocks are going to continue to do very well, ... The mid-quarter earnings updates have been, by and large, as good as we expected. Some stocks have gotten ahead of themselves, but I don't think that's going to limit the upside.

Peter Rogers

We were uniquely situated with access to the Tech pre-docs and post docs in computer science and engineering, but we're also connected with GTRI, the CDC and the national labs in Tennessee.

John Endicott

Tech is in the heart of Atlanta, and it's where our kids [affected by HIV and AIDS] live.

Garrett Gravesen

Every matchup on the field is going to be big. If we can get good protection up front, it gives our wide-outs an advantage. The more pressure (Tech) can put on (quarterback) Adam (Sanchez), the better matchup their secondary gets.

David Reeves

The first South Korean company, High-Tech Movies, was approved for the program and the Indian government is interested in sending us a company.

Bill Fontana

There will be more volatility in the September-to-October period, especially in the tech sector.

Philip Smith

Today's tech-savvy consumers are becoming increasingly more mobile and demand access to information on-the-go, whether it's the latest news headlines or directions to a favorite restaurant.

Nikesh Arora

The popularity of the Sprint Music Store is due largely to its ability to instantly deliver the songs people want when they want them on their Sprint phone, the one device that is likely always with them. This feature, along with the easy-to-use storefront, appeals to a mass audience in addition to tech-savvy early adopters.

Jeff Hallock

They seem to tune into anything that's [high-tech].

Celeste Beck

The credit will hopefully give high-tech start-ups more access to start-up capital and also will give angel investors additional incentive to invest in Wisconsin-based businesses.

Tom Milliken

The main thing is we want to increase the amount of kids in the program. The numbers are off; that's why we came in. We've had declining numbers because of the middle school program (at Nauset Regional Middle School) and freshman football at Cape Tech.

Bill Brooks

It's hard for me to get excited about a cyclical recovery when I personally think that the risks of a double-dip recession are increasing. If anything, the fact that tech is outperforming underscores my notion that the U.S. market is still highly speculative.

Rich Bernstein

What we have been seeing today and yesterday is a rather normal correction after the nearly vertical rise in high-tech shares in recent sessions. Investors will be taking refuge in other sectors until high-tech stocks find a floor.

Kazunori Jinnai

Here at Tech, that's what we do, pass the ball. But they're going to pass the ball to you in the flat and run screens. You're going to get an opportunity to carry the ball.

Taurean Henderson

A team can score 15 runs a game, but if their doing it against teams that can't play then that's different. I think Texas Tech is very good, but I think we're going to be OK. I think we're going to play well and carry over what we did this weekend.

Pat Murphy

You saw the leader that Jay Cutler was; he took that whole possession in his hands. He kind of reminded me of Bryan Randall of Virginia Tech when he did that to us last year. We can't let that happen; we can't let one person change the whole game.

Josh Gattis

There are two types of tech companies.

Nathan Myhrvold

The Bay Area's most heavily represented industries here are in management of companies and enterprises, professional and technical services like scientists, engineers and high-tech folks and in the information field like Web portals. We have more of those jobs here, and they tend to be higher-paying jobs.

Amar Mann

It's a surprise reversal today after the labor number this morning. The resignation of O'Neill was certainly a positive for the market. That was clearly the catalyst. The market was also getting a little oversold. And you have some good participation from tech.

Matt Ruane

Gains for U.S. stocks should give us a solid floor today, but we'll see sparse participation from institutional investors wishing to evaluate the outlook for the tech sector.

Masayoshi Okamoto

I think community colleges are a natural fit in the future bio world. They are at the leading edge of high-tech training.

Russ Read

This is an important signal for not just Microsoft but others in tech.

Mark Stahlman

IBM just doesn't give me the performance I'm looking for in tech.

Knox Fuqua

We've already let tremendous air out of these tech stocks. The prices on some of these tech stocks are looking very attractive.

Terrence Gabriel

This is a healthy looking market. It's not just energy deals that are working but some tech deals also. There certainly is a better tone in the stock market than a month ago.

Ben Holmes

It's the high-tech industry which produced the U.S. growth rate of the past 10 years.

Hasso Plattner

The hardest sector hit [on Monday] was Internet infrastructure software companies, which until a week ago were holding up really well, ... Historically, when all the tech stocks are hurting, that would signal that the market is finally bottoming.

Robert Turner

This annual event has become the one place in Maryland that the state's leaders in technology, education and government come to meet, network and honor the industry's best. We are one of the fastest growing Tech Councils in the country -- largely due to our members enormous influence in the Mid-Atlantic region and beyond.

Julie Coons

I met so many women who were in the minority in their companies as technical professionals, as managers, and especially as senior-level leaders in tech organizations. So I learned to deal with that and learned how not to be marginalized as one woman among lots of men.

Liz Ryan

What that tells me is that Sonoma County was much less affected than the rest of the Bay Area by the decline in the high-tech industry.

John Goodwin

Tech is a great place to be at the moment. Merger and acquisition activity and good company earnings make it a sector you have to be in.

Mariano Sancho

No other place I'd rather do it than at Virginia Tech.

Adam Linkenauger

Energy stocks are very volatile. We consider them to be the tech stocks of the energy industry. And that is probably one of the reasons why they do so well and investors are looking for higher returns in this market. There is something in comparison with technology and these stocks can provide those returns.

Jordan Horoschak

One day, people in China may be able to see the records of conversations between multinational tech companies and the Chinese authorities.

Rebecca Mackinnon

[Another shift in perception surrounds the specialization of knowledge.] In the early nineties, I went from being a generalist - Campbell's Soup kind of stuff - to focusing on high tech, ... Headhunters said, 'Don't do that, you'll put a cap on your career.' Old school advertising could be very surface-y. You didn't have to do a lot of research for a 30-second commercial.

Larry Chase

The market's gains really are a response to the good fundamentals we've seen, like the jobless claims. It's really helping tech because that is one of the most cyclical parts of the economy. There is also hope that capital spending will be vigorous even if the consumer takes a break.

Michael Metz

It's mostly because money managers haven't liked them very much for the last two years. Since the bubble [in tech stocks exploded], all the big action has been in small and mid-size, value-oriented companies.

Randy Lert

Farming and agriculture is a high-tech business. There are machines that are doing the work of men. Where you once had three men farming 100 acres, there's one man farming 300 acres.

Rob Davidson

(Whether they come) is up to Ivy Tech. But since they've now become a community college, I think they'll fit in perfectly.

Don Henderson

Our schedule allows us to play our traditional local rivals, as well as some national powers, before we get into the conference schedule, ... We travel to Duke and Virginia Tech, play a full slate at the Garden and play in the Holiday Festival. This will give St. John's fans a great opportunity to follow our team, which features a lot of new faces this year.

Norm Roberts

You really have to be careful with taking the rear view approach with tech. If you pile on to what's been working, you could be in for a big shock.

Christopher Traulsen

It will be a slow evolution, ... Dividends are a long-term investor's focus and for folks that are more short-term oriented it's not essential. And let's face it. A lot of tech investors tend to be shorter-term investors than average investors.

James Denney

Domestic institutions were looking for reasons to unwind a good slice of their long positions in the tech sector. The yen and the Nasdaq gave them two very good ones.

Masayoshi Okamoto

A number of the high tech names are getting smacked real good. It was already a market where investors were nervous already. With the darlings getting hit, that raises the anxiety level.

Al Goldman

A lot of schools just pounced on me the past couple of weeks. But Tech pretty much told me I'd be their guy.

Baron Batch

Texas Instruments' conference call left people pretty cold. That broke the momentum of that group and has spilled over into other tech stocks.

Robert Philips

A solid Nasdaq is inviting buying in battered high-tech issues here.

Yutaka Miura

I think customers will put up with a little less consistency and quality in tech support. After all, it's free, and you get what you pay for.

Cheryl Currid

In Lyon we showed a small tech demo, with just a small portion of the basic game mechanic. Now we have a much larger demonstration.

Geoff Houston

The impetus for the market to go up today was really inspired by the rebound in tech shares.

Liam Dalton

Regardless of the cost of these high tech gadgets there would always be buyers just because they are serious in their chosen sport. Who knows, maybe in the future, someone would create a jogging suit that has a built-in computer.

Toby Claudio

We're anticipating more high-tech job losses based on the downsizing in the process of occurring now.

Cynthia Solorio

We are told a lot of high-tech companies are interested in putting offices or allowing people to live in a certain town only if you have that capability. I think attracting high-tech industry is going to be our future. That's a first step we have to have.

Mayor Greg Newman

The valuations on tech stocks are so high that they've been an issue for a long time. These stocks have an ownership base that is prone to panic.

Pierre Ellis

This isn't the first time China has stiff-armed the world on a major global health issue, ... Tech companies, which heretofore had rushed to outsource to China because of the quality and low cost, are now rethinking whether they can put all their high-tech eggs in the China basket.

Peter Kastner

It was basically not a good day for the tech stocks in general and that's the main reason why we saw the 144-point drop.

Kate Warne

We're taking the whole thing — their line and that defense — as a challenge. We're going to do what Virginia Tech does. We're going to pound the ball at them. If it breaks, it breaks.

Jason Murphy

There is good reason for concern because a good piece of the old economy is not doing so well in this environment. But it is going to take a lot from the Fed to slow the tech rally.

Roy Blumberg

Colorado is one of the more technically savvy locations and one of the states that benefits most from the tech industry.

Matthew Kazmierczak

They could establish forward stocking locations, and treat these products much the same as service parts. Companies in the high-tech sector, for example, set up service parts logistics processes to get customers up and running within four hours if computers go down. Medical parts manufacturers could design the same kind of network to handle their products.

Chris Holt

For people who are looking to get into this market, they probably should not have more than 20 percent in tech.

Scott Kahan

Sussex Tech high school just agreed to come online.

Annie Norman

The days of the $150 pair of toddler jeans, the $1,000 high-chair and the $2,000 leather-lined stroller are upon us and manufacturers as well as retailers are accommodating. However, these consumers are also big on nostalgia, high-quality durable items that will last through multiple baby-lives, high-tech features that will make their lives easier, and high-fashion at bargain prices.

Don Montuori

[In the high-tech area,] we've long criticized the United Kingdom for not taking guidance from the United States, ... There had been a whole run of miserable results (in the U.S.) and the U.K. turned a blind eye to it.

George O'connor

[This program] fits what Senator Nunn has in mind. The reason he came and associated his name with Georgia Tech is because he believes the ability to bridge this gap and make science and technology really contribute and make good policy.

John Endicott

The large-cap tech area is pretty much speculative at this point. You're looking at very specific problems and you don't know what the outcome is going to be.

Michael Sprung

As high-tech obsessed as I am, I still use calling cards when traveling because they are typically one of the least expensive ways to call home.

David Rowell

Tech companies in general are going to have a multiplier effect versus the GDP. So as long as the GDP stays relatively strong, tech earnings should be a multiplier of that. If we see the GDP slow down markedly, then we could have a real problem in technology. But we don't see that yet.

Larry Seibert

You build a lead and you get comfortable with it, or you turn right around and get flat footed. It almost looked like they (PHCC) want to play them (Virginia Tech) into the game. We can't play 15 minutes each half.

Jay Joyce

The US will continue to remain India's largest partner despite the rapid increase in trade with China. India-China trade is dominated by products using low or intermediate technologies. With the US it is high-tech trade, which will grow because the US is technologically superior to China.

Arun Kumar

There are three types of energy audits. Some energy providers [electric and natural gas companies] will provide them, and there are private companies that perform them using draft detectors, infrared cameras and other high-tech devices.

Rachel Lipsey

For the first time in a few years, high-tech companies are trying to start new projects rather than figuring ways to cut back. Companies are trying to be innovative again.

John Metcalfe

We're positioning ourselves not so much as a wireless company but as a mobile media company, ... We really see ourselves as going after the high-tech consumer, someone who wants a lot of multimedia on their handsets.

Peter Adderton

California will be a leader in the next great high-tech growth industry - solar energy. This long-term, visionary policy will save ratepayers money, create high-paying jobs and reduce our dependence on foreign sources of energy.

Rhone Resch

Tech has been the biggest factor behind the latest bull run, so the fact that stocks are down seems fairly reasonable. I hesitate to sit back and say this a great buying opportunity.

Tobias Levkovich

I'm very happy to see the campus and everybody in the Georgia Tech community come together to make this a priority. People have put off agenda items and Labor Day plans to service those in need.

David Andersen

All of tech has been massacred, but our data suggests that storage may weather the storm better since its earnings stream will be more reliable than almost any other area of technology.

Thomas Kraemer

Clearly there are a lot of industries in tech that are just begging to be consolidated. So the question is not whether the pace of M&A picks up in 2005 but whether it will represent a breaking of the dam.

Arnie Berman

It makes you feel very up to date. It's high fashion and high tech at the same time.

Amanda Freeman

Telecoms and tech stocks (also) still get hit by France Telecom's sales warning.

Markus Steinbeis

People will be able to access information and communication services on their terms. [This is] a new set of services that will finally make all these high-tech devices - PC, TV, telephone and fax machine - work together.

Sol Trujillo

Things look unclear until such blue chips companies as high-tech and heavy machinery firms announce their earnings later this week.

Shinji Igarashi

How can the Jackets follow their opening thriller at Auburn by giving North Carolina even the hint of shocking Tech for the second consecutive season?

Tar Heels

We saw a breakout, a fundamental breakout today again, on a lot of these tech stocks. There's a lot of support behind them. They're the ones making all the gains right now for the most part.

James Niosi

In order to implement recycling, you need funding for a start-up program. The recycling program at Tech does as much as possible with funding, but ultimately it would be awesome if we could pursue recycling further.

Katelyn Keefe

Louisiana Tech continues to provide us with a place where we can nurture and market a technology that will revolutionize streaming technologies as we know it. Although getting our technology into homes around the world is our main focus, bringing environmentally friendly, technology businesses back to Louisiana is also a chief priority.

Jay Bowen

Our first games have been tough for us. We've played Brainerd two years in a row and had Tech last year, so we're used to it. It's just fun to get out there and see what you can do.

John Ross

More companies in the tech sector are instituting and raising dividends. That's good for investors who are value oriented and realize that a dividend is a piece of a return.

Linda Duessel

Weakness in high-tech shares, which are the key contributor to the Nikkei, pushed down the market.

Ryuta Otsuka

Despite the fact there is a lot of churn in high-tech, we've seen this to be pretty steady.

Bruce Wright

The next phase of difficult news for tech stocks to digest over the next few months.

Tobias Levkovich

In general, they looked at tech stocks because those have been volatile.

Pat Schneider

I'd like to have another shot at Tech. They're one of the few teams we haven't beaten. They're a great team but we're sitting right there with them. It's hard to beat a team three times.

Megan Sparks

Pocatello is benefiting from the growth of high-technology companies ... including AMI Semiconductor, which is the largest high-tech employer.

Ken Dey

I'm not surprised by the sell-off. Other tech companies have beat or met expectations and fell the next day.

Dion Cornett

It's been brutal. It's more of the same but tech is in its own world right now and it's a world of hurt. Cash is king right now.

Mark Donahoe

We began with a bang today and suddenly the sellers came out of the woodwork. Certainly a lot of hot money flowed into the tech side recently and that hot money moves so quickly. We may be close to a final sell off on the tech side because it went down a lot faster than it went up.

Wendy Strub

The men started the process of becoming a recognized student organization at Tech. Once they received pending charter status [from Tech], the colony petitioned IFC for provisional membership.

Buck Cooke

Stylish ambience, stadium seating, high-tech sound and projection, and of course, fantastic entrees will provide the ultimate movie-going experience for our patrons. Each Movie Tavern will be a place to regularly see the latest blockbusters from Hollywood but without the headaches associated with going to a twenty- or thirty-screen theater.

Jamie Benson

The partner sales corner is the ideal networking opportunity for Tech Access to ensure that channel partners from emerging markets are armed with the information, skills and tools necessary to effectively provide customers with the right solution at the best price ratio from Sun's vast portfolio.

Ghalib

The sustainable guys there talked about low-tech solutions. Sometimes you're looking back in time for solutions.

Stephen Gist

When it came down to it though, I had a younger brother that was 11, and just turned 12 last weekend. I'm a real big family man so I didn't want to go very far away. So I picked Tech for it being close to my family.

Gavin Tarquinio

This has been a phenomenal year for tech stocks and a lot of people want to lock these gains in and ride this out.

Ozan Akcin

The people running tech stocks up think they're immune [to interest rates]. I'm a conservative guy. I don't think they're immune.

Nick D'ambrosio

It was a very even game and we needed to be a little more aggressive with the ball. Our number-one priority right now is putting more shots on net. We're playing well, but not well enough to win. We need to start pulling the trigger more often when a shot presents itself. Voc-Tech was more active on offense and that was a key to the outcome.

Trevor Gagnier

Extremely strong for tech -- the best place in the economy. My belief is that everyone is working, real wages are going up and people are feeling good. Consumers spend in that environment.

John Chadwick

This is a theme that I think investors are missing, because as tech and retail companies continue to warn about profit shortfalls, there are no revisions in the drug area.

David Saks

We came out in the Virginia Tech game and played very well. That was the Florida State we haven't seen in a long time. Hopefully we come out (today) and do the same thing to help us for next year.

Buster Davis

If it was Virginia Tech, man, we would be so hyped for that game we would sure enough be ready.

Jason Murphy

They've taken some of these stocks down to really low valuation levels in tech and telecom and the leaders are going to come out ahead of the game, ... This is an opportunistic environment for any of those companies that have cash and are looking to acquire technology.

Tony Dwyer

Gradually upgrade weapons and other equipment and improve the defense capabilities and combat effectiveness of the army under modern technical and especially high-tech conditions.

Li Peng

We hope it works out well with Tech and the folks at the Mid-South.

Will Prewitt

The market seems to have found support at 15,300 this morning. I think the fact that Nasdaq recovered on bargain hunting in some tech stocks in late trade on Wednesday has stopped stocks falling so sharply here.

Alex Wong

The hi-tech keyboard makes it easier for even non-English speaking people and those who can't type to communicate with others effortlessly. It is meant to bridge the digital divide by simplifying the use of IT.

Ajay Gupta

The rally is being driven by tech. Money's going into the sector across the board. There's been an underlying bid in the market and any time you think we're going to get a real sell-off, it doesn't happen.

Mike Viracola

This is unprecedented since our firm began surveying tech skills pay in 2000.

David Foote

I mean we've had a consolidation but we haven't penetrated any long term support levels, and so, as I said, we're in a period of commonality where traditional market leadership may take hold and make some of us older guys look a little better than the-you know, high tech performers.

Scotty George

I remain bullish on the tech tape, ... I think short term we might be a little bit overbought here. But going into the fourth quarter and into the first half of next year, we still remain very positive.
