Dell also got an upgrade from Morgan -- same kind of in the sweet spot of the server market so that's something that's start this morning. Also National Semiconductor they upgraded by did you bankers they also be rebound in revenues so we've camped by consumers start with. It looked like tech stocks -- Yahoo! they had to postpone their annual meeting for July 3 -- with the in the July.
