Today's problem:

biz.yahoo.com

"``This year, we are going to end the year at over $500 million, up about 80 percent year-on-year,' Network chief executive Dan Warmenhoven told reporters after a signing a deal in the Malaysian capital."

The problem: last year revenues were $289M. So far this
year, NetApp has booked $379.3M. If you figure 80% this
fiscal year from last ($289M x .80 = $231M), you get a
target of $520M this year ($289M + $231M = $520M). If
you subtract what NetApp has booked this year, you get
a last quarter of $141M ($520M - $379M = $141M).

Since Q3 was $151M, this is obviously a break in the
revenue acceleration. Compare $141M to $90M Q4 of
last year and you get 57% year-to-year growth rate
in Q4. Not good.

Hopefully, something was lost in the translation with
the press in Malayasia or maybe I'm missing something.
