There is a major slowdown occurring in tech product buying. ODIS neither has the margins, pricing power, nor the new revenue sources to handle avoidance of losses. But they do have a locked-in cost structure just waiting to grow as support becomes problematic. Existing customers will try to expand the capabilities of their installed DBMS and the yield on the support is far less than new sales.

I'd like to be sure I understand what you're saying. Do you predict that 1999 earnings will be worse than 1998? I predict they will be better.

I do have to add, however, that Q4 of 1997 was a shocker and you were right and I was wrong.
