Overall, those Nasdaq 100 futures pointing to a slightly softer open after a 1.5 percent gain on the Nasdaq yesterday. We are looking for some results that come out today. One from VA Linux -- a loss of 32 cents a share expected from LNUX after a loss of 10 cents in the year-ago period. Also Novell expected to report break-even results compared with a profit of 3 cents. Novell rallying yesterday -- VA Linux up just a bit. And Lucent holding an analyst meeting today -- we'll be watching out for that. And don't forget CIENA is rallying after gaining ground yesterday. It's being added to the S&P; 500 -- Deb.</s>MARCHINI: All right. Thank you, Sasha.
