Right, Charles. How could SUNW's price have news factored in? It's right where it was a year ago or more after umpteen consecutive good quarters. And also the comment about margins "slipping" is a positive, not a negative. The street worries about Sun's dependence on higher margins than its PC-oriented competitors have to live with. When Sun shows healthy profit growth with lower margins and good orders, that is a potentially major plus-factor for the stock. I agree with others who noted the strength of the CC, which I think did a lot to offset the absence of an earnings surprise. I feel better than I did when the number came out. We'll see tomorrow if the MM's & analysts were listening hard!
