TWL,

This qtr's earnings estimates are worthless. The fact that it beats consensus is in itself meaningless to me. Per release, unit sales went up 38%, rev up 22% and earnings up only 12%. This 38% unit growth is pretty high. Rev is also higher than industry. With only 12% earnings growth, I am trying to decide whether this is a good or bad release?

Is this normal for the PC industry or is there a trend here?

what were the total revenues compared to the same quarter? I can't find that in the release.
