Does anyone have the day, time, & conference # with phone number for the conference call yet? (Nevermind I just discovered the earnings button with the information for tomorrow and it's too late to zap this one)

Thank you ahead of time. (Thank you Craig)

Let us pray for good news this time. AMEN !!!

Dennis

Maura,

<<I'm glad to see that Ancor once again invited you to participate in the live conference call. I thought your status might have been jeopordized after the last call! I appreciate your representing the board and asking some great questions.>>

<LOL> It doesn't EXACTLY work that way. I'm not sure why they call it an invitation list. It would probably be more accurate to call it a permission list. Ancor doesn't "invite" you to participate, they "permit" you to participate. If this were a true invitation list, my status probably would have been in jeopardy.

I'm not sure everyone realizes this, but some of the questions I ask during the call come from fellow SI people who can't participate for one reason or another, or who simply don't like to talk in public. (I don't really like to talk in public either, but as a shareholder, I do have a right to ask questions, even if those questions aren't always so easy to answer.)

On the other hand, as we found out this quarter, even though the answers might not be to our satisfaction at the time, that doesn't mean that nothing is going on behind the scenes. Clearly, the INRANGE deal must have been in its final stages, even though nothing could be said due to NDA. I'm not sure where they pulled the Boeing deal out of. The MKII-8 was also obviously in the works, along with the plans for the San Jose sales office, the new hires, and the slick advertising campaign. Hindsight being 20-20, it seems to me that Ancor was a lot busier than most of us thought, and certainly there was more going on than they would or could talk about. After all the positive things that happened (and were announced) this quarter, I'm going to have to give them the benefit of the doubt.

Craig
