Hi, John,
You might want to retract your statement: "I guess Synopsys will retain
it's No. 1 position in EDA revenues in the foreseeable future." That was
a future of about a week! We're not going around beating our chests,
rather we're staying very focused at Cadence on winning the hearts and
minds of our customers through the best technology, integration and open
collaboration.

I'm a techonerd, not a financial nerd. My congrats to Cadence. - John
