No he didn't. He basically said he could not predict if
they would be "overjoyed" or not. Now that I see the results,
I see why. He has shown he can crank up the revs, hurting
EPS growth (this quarter) or that he can aim for higher
margins/EPS, hurting the revs (last quarter).

So, depending on which of those two items (revs vs. EPS) is more
important, people are either overjoyed (41% rev gr) or not (EPS).
He said he found it hard to predict the reactions of others,
which I think we all realize is an impossible task in any area
of life.
