Almost all SEC reports are done in this fashion. Whether its MSFT or YHOO, they all spell out the all the possible risks of doing business. Its a very typical report. But its a loooong read and gives a pretty good overview of their business. Tim

Actually two peculiar things from this report. Not sure the significance but the 1Q99 ends Aug 28 in this report as opposed to Aug31 (like last yr). 28th is a Fri, but what about that last day of the month.. peculiar. Looks like we start 2Q with $15M extra in the bag... The other thing the report says is that it is typical for the last month in qtr to be where most of the sales for the quarter happen. I just find it strange that a company can not even its results out a bit. When they are in the clear some months from now, i would hope this doesn't occur anymore. Tim
