Don , earnings Arrow (Hd) is up (at least .01 ), plus servers ship in August

Fret not !

Could be that IBM's Microelectronics and Global Services Division will carry the ball this quarter , but the G5s will spark 3Q and 4Q's growth .

These mainframe servers are for new intranet corporate networks , probably the sequential result of 1Q's "Nagano" site demo software and 2Q's pre-installation services .

The G5 OS has a YR2000 detect and that along with new intranet/internet software (plus added NC hardware) requirements will spark further Global Services growth .

If so the earnings conference call should be very bullish .

Regards and good luck to all,
Jim K.
