I think that is more than fair considering 1997 was a disaster and '98 looks to be a slow year with growth in the 20% range for networkers. This growth rate is clearly the media concensus. They were incorrect being too high on growth rate for 1997. I believe them to be too low for 1998. Agreed on looking at fiscal 99 earnings for COMS. I anticipate the growth for networkers to pick up into the low 30% range again. I believe the lack of growth in 1997 was due to many product transition issues. Glenn
