19-Feb-08. I sold off part of my "legacy" HP shares today to pay for a home improvement project.
Some time before taxes are due in 2009 I will have to figure out exactly which shares these are and how much I actually paid for them. For now, however, I'll just use as the basis what I know is the average purchase price, $18.09.
