re: does it mean business was picking up at the end of the quarter more than they expected?

Wishful thinking. Probably just means the sales force was ordered to move inventory by end-of-quarter, any way they could. That means falling margins. Good thing EMC didn't get addicted to vendor financing during the Bubble. Going cold turkey on that is painful, and sometimes fatal, as LU is finding out.
