I think this pattern has changed with the drop off oof educationals stuff and the new OS release coupled with the sales generated by the new OS release. Do not forget the sales profile way back was far different as a pure consumer machine. The came education and the Mac and the grafix niches. Each of these has different annual profiles and the final profile is the vertical sum of all of those. Consumer Oct-Nov-dec big, jan feb mar good, Apr-may June sux july aug sux bigtime and sept perks up for fall. grafix niche more or less steady all year, but a jump in new OS and G3 sales. Educational large orders for the fall school season, lesser for spring, and slow for the summer. There is a perk in sales to use budgets in the end of April Business. more or less steady all year, a bit slower in summer. Now you have the educational stuff has died a lot so that is contributing less and niche is steady along with a bit of a burst from business and consumer from the new MSFT products and the OS mediated sales. Look up, does it not? better than .15 i would say. I hesitate to say .30 with all those big gurus converging on .15. but I think it will be more than .15 What do I know. Bill
