Hi Eric..>> From your review of the revenue numbers, which quarter is usually the best?.<<

In 95, Q3 was the best. This year, Q3 is the worst, hopefully. Generally, Q1 is flat with the previous quarter. As you discussed, 97-Q1 could be an up surprise because of the upgrades. Although Q3 results were lousy, there is a silver lining. Considering that total revenues for Q3 are only 365M, a sequential quarterly growth of 4% to 5% in revenues, which I think is achievable, would give the stock a big lift. However, let's see Q4 results first.

About regional sales and seasonality, it becomes a minor concern as long as the overall sales are growing.

Regards

Salah
