Are "they" setting us up?

ok, I work for a high-tech company thats traded on the NASDAQ.Like all techs our stock has been hit pretty hard, about 50%.We beat the first quarter number by a tiny bit but get this, we already have Q2 in the bag.Thats right, we already have enough revenue to hit our Q2 number even if we don't sell another thing this quarter.

How'd they do that?..Simple, we didn't count all the revenue generated in Q1.I guess they figured everyone else was suckin, the bar was lowered so what the f*ck, let's save it for next quarter.

How many companies you guys think are doing this sh*t?..I see posters on our Yahoo board who can't wait to go short on us because they figure if we "just" hit Q1 there's no way will hit Q2.Boy, are they in for a shocker.

I've made nice money thanks to some of the very knowledgeable people who post to this forum.So, help me out guys, could there be a whole lot of companies doing what were doing?..This news(just found out today)makes me re-think my bearish ways.

Advice?
