Here I try to elaborate what the current quarter looks like based on the latest news from CBS as well as Rodg's estimate, coupled with Eric's Q4 estimated data at: macevolution.com We probably reach 600,000 units iMac sales (conservative estimate compared to Rodg's 700,000 units, and pretty consistent with what CBS's revealed data). The total revenue will be around $1844m as opposed to Eric's $1550m; the net will be $1.15 as opposed to Eric's $0.66 for diluted shares; The year-to-year revenue growth comes true (from $1614m of Q4 97 to $1844m of Q4 98, with 14.2% growth rate) and the earning surprise will reach up to 238% ($1.15 vs. expected $0.48 from analysts). It's really amazing. The above data will be attainable if the article of CBS is true which I believe there's no doubt. Phil
