Hi Steve,

Personally, I think the SEC should come down on Reuters like the wrath of God. The way those clowns have been manipulating the market with their bogus, slanted articles is just plain criminal. If anything, Microsofts earnings estimates will have to be revised upward from current estimates by a few cents based on the companies statements. How that translates into "Microsofts Woes" is beyond my ability to comprehend. Free speech my ass. No one should be able to create buying and selling oportunities for themselves through the media. If it's illegal to do it through news letters, spam and investment related web sites, it sure as hell can't be OK for Reuters and CNBC to do it.

Regards,

Don

The figure to look at Steve is % revenue from Asia

CPQ may very well sell its boxes mostly domestically whereas MSFT (13% Asia) sells its software internationally. This may also have implications for NOVL.
