i'd also be interested in revenue recognition for yourware. is it front loaded?

Skeets, are you going to look into this? I can't get the full 10Q yet since I only have the freebie services. My guess is that YourWare profit is fully front loaded since a third party is financing the deal. And this would be proper, as much as I hate to admit it. The only issue would be if the bank has some sort of make good agreement with GTW in the event the buyer defaults.

YourWare is simply a marketing gimmick, but one that is apparently working - like buying a car for a dollar over invoice used to work, until people found out about the manufacturers' rebates to dealers.

I don't know why we take FA seriously .... it doesn't seem to matter to anyone "investing".

Regards, Ice
