Neil,

<So you're the one that caused Borders to miss their estimates>
I've even used them for myself if I bought too many! Seriously, they're very convenient and I don't understand why they weren't included as income last quarter. Accountants, anyone? It just seemed like such conservative accounting.

Heck, if I'd known they wouldn't book the purchase, I'd have bought some more computer books (which are often more than $50 a pop). ;^) I'm going there after work, I wonder if they book their cafe as a liquid asset (more like frozen asset today).
