PA---these numbers from Zacks can only reflect what analysts were estimating prior to last weeks report. New numbers may start showing up late monday or early tuesday, but possibly not until those days NEXT week.

>>>It is obvious these numbers will have to be revised up (well up!) but there are only 4 estimates from analysts that are being used for this.<<< I look forward to it. We could very well benefit from upward revisions, ugrades, and initiation of coverage by new firms. I am convinced managment is conservative with their guidance to analysts, considering that's the only way they could miss a few quarterly estimates by 30 - 50%. I'm pleased about that...MSFT uses this tactic all the time (even talks down their stock!) and beats estimates repeatedly. Style Pts.
