Good catch. That's 11c per share from cost-cutting. Note that R&D is down to $400K in this Q, there's only another 0.4c/share boost available from squeezing that to zero sometime before the end of time. Dunno how much they can further squeeze the $53M cost figure, but declining sales + declining costs is the definition of business getting worse rather than better, I would say. That, but mainly the drops in PC sales revenue (down 11% from 3Q98) and gross margins for PC sales (15.5% vs 19.3%) will be the excuse for a sell-off tomorrow, IMO.
