Bob;

I think the most negative part is that the license rev grew only 3% yr to yr. This is what analyst concentrate on, and gives them an idea of the future service business and how competitive they are in the market place. Also street never likes the idea of restatements. It confuses them.

There was article by shorts not long ago that PSFT is very aggressive in their accounting practices, may be time has caught up with them.
