Harlan,

Don't know what the rules are for re-purchasing of shares by a company. I would assume that it would have to be on at least an uptick.

I have now read the entire packet..interesting comment by the Oppenheimer analyst that the market would view their heavy cash differently if they did not make accretive acquisitions or the stock re-purchases.

the thing that most appeals to me is the heavy share buybacks. This is one of the most solid evidences that management believes in their company's future. In addition, the management seems to talk a lot about getting the stock price up, which most companies seem to give mild lip service to.

On the negative side, it seems that this stock is a slow riser. Maybe the stock buybacks will hit the general market's radar screen and bump up the price nicely.

John
