I updated my table of bookings and bilings home.netcom.com What is interesting, look at the Book to Bill Ratio I color code yellow. It's final revision has been under 1.0 since August 2004. Nobody seems to comment that the book to bill was over 1 earlier but recent downward revisions to bookings made two of the green boxes (B2B >1.0) go back to less than 1.0. Maybe that is because the B2B is down but the prelim bookings for Oct were the highest since Dec 2004, a year ago. Lets hope they don't revise downward again for Oct...
