Jim, when do you predict PPP will be broken up ? This been talked about for years, I had heard it would be broken up last summer as well.

Do you think that maybe the Summit & Visx actually crafted a partnership (PPP) that will hold up ? You know quite a bit of legal effort went into establishing it. What kind a message would the FTC be sending by not allowing innovative companies from profiting or at least to recover their research and development costs ?

Also, Summit could possibly buy Sunrise or Autonomus by year end and from what I've heard Autonomus hasn't been overly impressive overseas as compared to existing Summit & Visx machines.
