I have just re-read this release again. This just makes no sense. What was all that crap three weeks ago that sales were down, that the bottom fell out of the pc market, blah blah blah.

Does this Hairball realize how much money he cost the loyal (meaning trader caught sleeping with this one) shareholders?

I just do not understand. The reason as I understood it that the earnings would be bad was because of a slowdown in sales. That is not what we are seeing on this release. I agree that the net efforts were going to steal a nickel, but we should still be up on for the quarter.

Unless margins slipped again, but promotional and seasonal expenses are supposed to be lower this quarter.

We should be back into double digits soon, unless the street decides that these guys just don't know whats going on in their own backyard.
