even with all the doom and gloom, up a quarter... Bottom fishers? Did I miss it? or is this just another little sucker-run before yet another dip, uhm opportunity? Anyone? thanks, Pete

Maybe there are still customers purchasing WordPerfect and Corel Draw... I really don't think the positive cash flow should be such a mystery.

Leo: Not many times Bean gets to gloat over warnings of any kind. Message 2080761 Re: Stuffing the channels. End of August 97.

The risk of recording revenue in one quarter and having all the goods returned in another quarter. Hypothetically what would happen if a bug in the software made it unusable and was returned back to the vendor for credit and hence sent back to the manufacturer? Sold for credit in first quarter. Returned for Debit in the second quarter. The risk is small. But boy what it would do to a stock! Mr. Bean
