John, thank you for that excellent post; it certainly does explain the weakness in share price. WSRN shows TRMB with a p/e of 50. That appears to be quite high for a company continuing to disappoint the analysts. These shares must surely be headed lower. I was berated here earlier for suggesting this was a good short candidate; your post showing underlying fundamnetal weakness surely supports that thought. Thanks again.

Thanks for the information on projected earnings. I'd prefer 95 cents a share to 88 cents any day, of course, but I also think a stock whose earnings increase from 40 cents to 88 cents is a good investment. And my investment time horizon is a lot longer than that. Any one who has invested in this company gets used to its ups and downs. David PS -- SirAlexx ("Al", as I think of him) is just ticked because -- after his repeated spamming here -- I've been posting on the thread he set up and faithfully maintains, questioning the legitimacy of that bulletin board outfit he shills for and his pose as a disinterested investor. To the extent he has provided additional information here, however, I am grateful. I'd ask anyone else with AOL access to post interesting dialogue from that thread here.
