Given the fact that not one analyst currently has a 'buy' rating on Gateway stock, I think Mr. Inouye leaving Gateway is good news for shareholders. The company has successfully cut costs, but now it's time for them to focus on increasing shareholder value. |
Given the fact that the desktop market space is predominately Windows, the results show an unusually high degree of dissatisfaction with the existing product and . . . a willingness to move to something else -- almost anything else -- to relieve their pain. |
Giving for the tsunami was literally off the charts. There may be an issue of donor fatigue, it's too early to tell, but it looks like giving for the Pakistan earthquake is more typical of the historical response by U.S. donors to international emergencies. |

Glenn's model has put us in a position where we all have a common message, and all of the efforts of the office are leveraging the other efforts better than they have in the past. There's a clear notion that there's a single songbook we're all singing from. |
GM's decision to sell its shares in Suzuki may have been accelerated by the arrival of Jerry York. Although York was not explicit about the Suzuki equity stake in his January 10th speech, his aim appears to build up a cash hoard necessary to restructure GM. |
Going into the tournament, we recognized the considerable parity of the top four teams in the conference. So, we looked at it in terms of if we do really well, we could take the whole thing. And on the other hand, if we do really poorly, we could be fourth. |
Growth was lower than expectations because of inventories -- which will need to be rebuilt -- while moderating employment costs will make it less costly for firms to hire additional workers. The still-strong level of wage and salary should buoy consumption. |
Have I come out of the game making a defensive mistake? Yeah. He doesn't really discriminate. Everybody is held accountable ... He seldom pulls a guy for an offensive mistake, taking a bad shot, anything like that. The leash is shorter on the defensive end. |

He (Fleck) had 12 in the first half. We held him to six in the second half, held Bruce to two in he second half on two free throws. Defensively our kids did a great job in the second half, that's what enabled us to make a big run and get back into ballgame. |
He [Allen] made some big shots. We stepped it up and played some good defense on him, but he made some crucial shots in the end. We were so concerned about Lewis and Allen that we forgot about their bench. They came in and made some big plays and big shots. |
He [Gingrich] used that against [then-House Speaker] Jim Wright and the Democrats. That phrase is now coming back to haunt them. It is not whether anyone did anything wrong; it is the perception that develops, and there is nothing that they can do about it. |
He and I had a conversation a week and a half ago and I asked him what his plans were after high school. He seemed to have everything planned out and seemed to be looking forward to the future. It was a great time of he and I getting to fellowship together. |
He bounces back. He could appear seven times. It would be great today to have a good winning game to give him a chance to make a relief appearance without it being real tight with no room for a mistake. But we plan to use Jason as a reliever in this series. |
