Right.

Their projections were 2.5 - 4.5 million in Q1 and now they are projecting 1.5 million.

You don't see the big deal there?

Put like that? Yeah, it's fairly signifigant.

Indeed.

Maybe OT, but I just have to wonder:

MS, like a lot of other companies, has gotten so big and spread their net out so far and wide...the backlash has to be coming soon. They've got their hands in just about everything at this point.

Too much...

What's the old adage about doing one or a few things very well (specializing) vs. doing a whole lot/everything but not very well at all?

Hopefully you get my point.
