Finder,

>>I think the reference was to 50% of net. <<

Right! My post still holds for net income though.

>>Eric does not want everyone to see what a failure from a profit standpoint his edge strategy has become. <<

Your insinuating a lot of negativity in your posts, yet it's
all 100% opinion.

So far COMS has been a model of executing what it said it would.
It's also said many times that this quarter is a weak one, and
so it's managed expectations that way it should.

Yet everyone is assuming a "major" preannouncment before it's even
happened and before there's any hard evidence to assume one.
I'd hate to think what the market would be like if
all stocks were judged the same way.

Fundamentals don't matter any more. Simply comes down to
credibility. Unless they blow out earnings two or 3 quarters
in a row, even a dog on the street will not stop to smell
them out of curiosity.
