David, I think the loss of OEM sales was partially offset by retail sales.

We tracked retail sales unofficially here on this site during
the holiday and clearly the increase in retail Q-over-Q
prevented a major earnings disappointment.

I still am dumbfounded how they beat the EPS estimates despite
the flat top-line growth. I still need to listen to the c.c.

Finally, it would appear that Merrill Lynch actually got it right.
I respect the analyst for his accurate prediction, but am still
upset that a single institution can sway the stock price so profoundly.
