Seems to me that, if they had wanted to, they could have come up with some reason to exclude the amount from Q4 and saved for next quarter (hang on the unearned revenue line item in the b/s). If outlook was that poor for Q198, I'm certain they would have tried to meet the number and saved that revenue for the next quarter. (Of course, I've been wrong before.)

EEEEeesh! I missed this. You point out something here which may in fact be even more dangerous. Realizing next quarter's revenues to make the numbers for the current quarter is how I read it. There's never a guarantee for upcoming quarters... My guess is they needed this for their numbers. Hmmm...perhaps this isn't good at all. I wonder how the analysts will read this...
