Goodwill adjustments

Glenn thanks for the informative posts again.

Note (c) grabbed my attention- <<The goodwill and substantially
all other purchased intangible assets will be amortized on a
straight line basis over approximately 3 years>>

From your post #23127 goodwill from the Junglee transaction looks like $176.982 million which will be spread out over 3 years, about $15 million a quarter.

Is this new news or was this already expected? Did analysts expect them to book the whole Junglee deal at a loss this quarter much like XCIT tried to do with the Netscape deal? Also, why have adjustments been made to the 1997 statements? Didn't the acquisition happen this year?
