<<Actually, I believe Phillip is talking around those numbers. Phillip, any comments.>> Rich, I'm serious about those numbers I came up with. The bottom line of iMac sales volume is too good to be true. You could stick with what you believe in your calculation like I stick with mine. It's little doubt that iMac will be selling like a hot cake in Europe from September 4th in German and England, September 16th in France. Those 28% of total revenues from Europe will be another boost to the total numbers. The final number will be getting better as it becomes a hot item. This is a psychological effect that will significantly add to the final result. We've got 65% of total iMac revenues from US and Japan. The remaining 28% of Europe and about 7% from the rest of countries will be strongly stimulated by previous sales in US and Japan. From the stock viewpoint, I think it'll steadily move up after October 1st in anticipation of excellent quarter report. Between now and the end of September, news of European iMac sales from September 4th, 16th and Job's visit to France (September 19th) may give the stock another lift. Therefore, under current circumstance, it seems AAPL will move up in most of the days ahead unless another big drops from overall market, which is unlikely but still possible. Phil
