Paul, yes If you drop the gain and also the restructuring costs, then you get about .21. It can be presumed the restructuring is related to the sale of Mac products. Lower sales also come into play which are almost all attributable to the loss of Mac products revenues, which I think makes the picture seem better on EPS, except the Monarch sales are lower than the same period the previous year. The SGA costs are still higher than I would like to see them, but it is stated that they will be very substantially cut because of the sale. This has not shown up yet. So, now they have cash, and presumably lower expenses. I was disappointed that Monarch sales were not picking up more. It is stated they intend to market more and the sales force is improved. They have some cash to help this along. I think the product is good. It really depends on DWCH generating sales. I am still optimistic, but things depend on how they use the current situation to get Monarch and Q-desk rolling. A bit redundant, but what I am saying is it is premature to judge the effects of the sale yet, but let's watch closely. Good Luck , Kevin
