Joe, re: Most of it is just a general corporate overhead, very little some new product lines. Funny, because in the first quarter they said: "In addition, "all other" includes certain corporate-level operating expenses, including a portion of profit-dependent bonus expenses that are not allocated to the operating segments. Prior to 2001 the majority of the profit-dependent bonus expenses were kept at the corporate level, but as of the first quarter of 2001, the majority of these expenses have been allocated to the operating segments." So what portion of which expenses are allocated to the operating segments? And how is a shareholder to determine the profitability of any given segment? (BTW, flash is in the comm group) John
