And I hate to say it, but I also think TRMB isn't going anywhere for at least another quarter. Especially since Q2 is supposed to be a good quarter for this company. Maybe we are seeing problems with the Japanese economy show up in the survey market. We'll have to wait another couple of weeks to find out for sure.

I checked once on how many shares Charlie has, it's around 10K...Jim Sorden is one of the larger shareholders.

BTW, IMO Charlie is not a bad CEO. He's a pretty shrewd guy. I have had the opportunity to talk with him and be a fly on the wall of a few conversations with Charlie, Jim and Peetz. Charlie is a visionary. He sees the future of GPS and Trimble and is putting money to make sure that Trimble stays on Top.

I heard different about this quarter, but I hear things from a lower level. I can understand it with the fact that they just expanded into another building, and expanded manufacturing...lot's of overhead.

Anyway, oh well....just another buying opportunity right? ;)
