– BRCM revenues have declined 23.1% Q1 to Q1 over last year. Although revenues increased Q to Q the current quarter this year, Y-T-D revenues for the six months ending June 30th have declined this year over last. I don't really consider that significant. EVERYBODY's year over year numbers look like crap at this point. We were in the middle of a recession last year. The fact that they have experienced what is now four consecutive quarters of growth is far more compelling. Next quarter everyone's numbers will be skewed the other way. For example, current estimates for q3 are 287 million versus 213 million last year. That's a 35% increase. Maybe THAT's why it's trading at 5.7 times sales. That being said, I find many of your other points to be quite compelling. Particularly the gross margin decline.
