btw, what was gtw's annual rev growth and what was their annual eps growth for last q? 27% and 5.4% respectively. Wasn't Q4 '96 a particularly strong earnings Q for all box makers (except Apple of course)? I'll take strong sales gains and earnings at least back on track (sure doesn't look like they are going out of business anyway). For a turnaround Q, not bad. And don't forget, there just might be someone out there who'd love to pick up another $6.3 billion of revenue in the PC market (remember, we're only at 1 times sales now). HWP with their stated goal of becoming the biggest box maker in the US market by 2001 comes to mind. Wonder if they could use a direct selling channel? Hmm. Bob
