I hope so. But it was still the weakest quarter since the 2nd quarter of 1995. Yes, five years ago. Also, to me it felt as if the corporations did not 'fall off the cliff' until this first quarter. Recall in January most tech CEOs were still kind of optimistic; that changed suddenly and abruptly. I don't want to be the doom-and-gloom gus here, but I'm beginning to believe the 'worse before better' scenerio. Also, I don't think we can hit bottom without consumer sentiment dipping. Someone please convince me otherwise :)
