Hi Jak!, Well so much for what I know. Disappointed with the results due to my expectations, but as a company it looks like they are still doing very well. I did note that their reserve for inventory had jumped from around 26 mil to 42 mil, the reserve for channel rebates jumped 3 mil and for bad debt $750, thou. For a total reserve increase of approx. 20 mil. hmmmm ( .08 eps )

About the new advertising program, I feel that the computer literate techie group have already been informed about the attributes of Zip and there's a need to inform the average user . Almost all of my first time computer customers and a lot of my old time customers have not heard of Zip, this will make retail sales easier.

A couple of comments on the new products that didn't ship.
I have a list of people ( some wanting to prepay ) waiting for Buz.
We also had people putting off Jaz purchases due to the Jaz II release.

I thought that the conference call was an overall good call with
decent questions.
