Lets have a look at how SUNW is doing relative to its IT hardware competitors! Say......DELL, IBM, HPQ, EMC, NTAP, CSCO and LXK. SUNW's March 2004 Q revenues are forecast to be up 2% from their March 2003 Q results. The competitors' forecast annual changes in revenues for March/April Q are: DELL (Apr Q) +18% IBM +9% HPQ (Apr Q) +8% EMC +32% NTAP (Apr Q) +33% CSCO (Apr Q) +20% LXK +9% So if everything comes in just as forecast, SUNW is losing out to everyone! The sad thing is SUNW also had the worst annual comparisons in March 2003 (-10% from March 2002), so they have the easiest comparisons of the group this year. What is the reason some people here actually like this stock/company again???? Elroy
