3 weeks, 5 months, h*ll, mike, the only difference is a 2 needs to be added to make them both equal 5. what's the big deal, you nasty nitpicker, you ;-)

Mike, Last question first. Achilles got so many hits for free that they decided to charge some huge amount of money to view their site. I now consider them a bunch of Achilles heels. -g- I always liked Hector and Ajax better in the Iliad, anyway.

You are not far off, but I would mention one caveat. Last quarter had the Christmas season in it and is much better, seasonally than this quarter or the summer. With pc sales in the toilet, 4 to 5 months inventory looks possible, though I estimated closer to a full quarter.

Kurlak doesn't look at stuff like inventory or anything elso on the balance sheet. I don't think he knows how. Remember, this is the guy who missed the dividend cut last year. He just relies on his fantasies and spoon feeding from the co., then the power of his sales force to cement his rep. -g-
