Steve, I agree with your conclusion.

There was an interesting post on YAHOO that a Q3 writeoff might put them in position to pay bonuses, which the writer thought were based on 6 month periods. Since they would most likely have operating earnings for the last half with a Q3 writeoff, I thought that it was a novel approach to the issue.
