Chiping in for the first time... A couple of things: 1. Awhile back someone asked who Doug Rademacher is. No one has answered that, probably no need to now, but I will: He is a vice president, in charge of, among other things, hardware and software development. He is also one of the three original founders of APC. 2. What is the "street" projecting for this quarter's earnings? The only number I have seen posted is Joe-the-Cement-Man stating First Call came in at .27. Does anyone see a problem with an estimate that is 35% over last year quarter-to-quarter, particularly with APC still citing 20%-to-25%? 3. A possible, partial explanation for APC's inventory numbers: APC is constantly coming out with new products (current product base is well over 200). A certain amount of build-up of new products is needed each time one is coming up for release. How much impact? Don't know. That's about it for now. By the way, I am not an investor. Just an APC employee with stock options coming due, some day.
