Tony, Re: "no-one can say that Q2 to Q3 should be flat"

Right. Your concern with gross margins and sequential growth made me wonder. I looked up Sun's Quarterly Earnings per share for the last couple of years just to see if Sun's quarter to quarter performance was a normal, seasonal thing or if it could be something new.

I posted numbers to Amy, before tennis <g>, and just returned to the computer. Seems as if the 2000 drop in quarterly earnings is less than either of the last two years. Am I looking at all the wrong info?

We agree on several points:

Sun's report was far from perfect.
A decline in margins is never a good thing.
The more data points, the better.

BTW You're one of my favorite Intel bigots, but you knew that already <vbg>.
