<Well, I doubt many people even expected it to be THIS bad.>

I didn't! I was counting on the units to be decent and results to come in at the low-end of expectations given the ASP collapse and given there was no preannouncement by the end of the quarter. This announcement tells me:

a) ASP are probably in the $70s instead of $80s like I estimated and/or flash tanked quite a bit
b) Jerry & Co can always reach new lows when you think they can't go any lower.

The only good news here is unit shipments - Duron may be finally ramping up in sales.

Jerry is once again proving that:
good technology team + incompetent management = mediocre company

How sh*tty can the management be if they fail to not preannounce a 17% decline in sales until this late when the guidance was "from flat to possibly down 10%"?
