I was thinking of deferred earnings... do you mean their cookie jar revenues? the practice that they are being investigated for by the SEC? now that's not enough for them any more, they just announce that they will be channel stuffing by reporting revenues a little earlier than they used to.... the cookie jar must not have been good enough for this quarter.... must have been a bad quarter..... but hey, they'll beat earnings by about two cents come h*ll or high water as they've always done, just don't look at the numbers too close if you have a weak stomach..... jon.
