Zeev, I bet PROG gets at least one analyst earnings revision, (An Upwards revision of course), next week, since PROG management just announced that the internet sales have increased 205% thus far. The two analysts out there have a mean esitmate of $.85 for 1999. Your estimate is $1.45 for 1999. I think you're estimate is going to look pretty darn accurate by year's end. C'mon, you haven't cut open any turnips for next week. They must be ripe by now. What do they say?
