Dave, I agree. One indication is the $12 to $14 mil pay off for royalties. Looks like they are cleaning their books to me.

"I don't think this quarter is a disaster for SYSF, as much as it is the beginning of a new, better managed and more focused, company."

Let's hope it is the later, but under any possible interpretation, it is definitely the former.

It may well be worse than a disaster. Until credible explanations are offered, and given management's history, one might be well advised to assume the worst. That is, past revenues have been booked overly optimistically (cooked) -- very possibly SysWiz revenue. And USB was sold because they need the money.

The only "saving grace" is that the market cap was already miniature.

Why is this thing not down more than 60% on a more than 60% revenue shortfall? Isn't it accurate that SYSF's revenues are on a per PC basis? We know PC sales are strong, so doesn't this mean they lost major contracts which they don't acknowledge in their press release? Was their a conference call we don't know about? That's the only possible explanation for the gift of being able to sell at $3 1/2 instead of $2. Maybe this stock is dominated by individual investors and they don't recognize the scale of what's happened.

No interest in SYSF (in every sense).
