Last quote I can see is 27 1/4. Hard to see what significance that has, as there weren't many sales after hours, and most were ~ 26 3/4. At first glance this quarterly report shows the company on the right track. I'll be curious to see is they've completed the 6M share buyback which was authorized around the last Q earning release...(?). Is that the main reason for the reduced cash reserve? If so, perhaps they'll hold off on further share buybacks for now (especially if options dilution is expected to diminish). One other note for any financial whizzes out there. While this board has been looking at increasing deferred revenues as a positive sign (and they increased again this quarter, right?), I thought I saw someone at TMF mention them as a liability. Can anyone clarify the significance of deferred revs? Randy
