>>>Receivables are not worrisome to me, because an increase (41% from last quarter) may reflect an acceleration of business towards the end of the quarter.<<< Paul, is it possible that an acceleration of business towards the end of the quarter may be a bad thing in itself? Might it suggest that TLAB booked sales just to make the quarter? By the way, I know absolutely nothing that would suggest that's what they did. (If anything, the company seems scrupulously honest -- I remember the earnings warning last quarter, issued despite the fact that they ended up beating the number.) Just asking.
