Hi James - I echo your sentiments. I've got nearly 25% of my portfolio in SGI. I am sticking with my "buy and hold" goals. Why do you think the company is uncomfortable with the estimate?

My concern is not sales at this point. From what I have been seeing in the field, sales look pretty strong. And it looks like Bo Ewald is doing his thing shoving boxes out the door. But remember that although they are making improvements in leveling shipments throughout the quarter, they still ship most of the product in the last month of the quarter. If they were able to ship unconstrained, I have no doubts they will hit their revenue targets.

Regards
Jeff
