Addi,

Sun's quarterly result is a bit weak. Do you know why they have the earnings disappointment?

I think one reason is the currency exchange rate and the strong US dollar. Recently, the Southeast Asian countries like Malaysia, Thailand, Singapore and Indonesia all have currency crisis. I think they are purchasing less or postponing the purchase of products from the US. Do you know how much revenue of Sun, in percentage terms, is derived from the Southeast Asian countries?

Also, it seems that the Starfire is not selling too well.

Regards.

H.Wai
