Q: Your recommendation of MacDonald Dettwiler reminds me of my investment of Comdev (symbol CDV). My understanding of Comdev from the past was that they designed... Satellites for different gov't or non gov't entities. Comdev appears to have struggled throughout the years. Would you know the difference between these companies and why you think Macdonald Dettwiler stands out? Thanks.

Q: DGI-T Data Group. Is the big pop today related to the fact that they did not cut their dividend?
Can DGI hold in close to this price, or it this more likely a temporary position?
Perhaps this is now a real turnaround story?

Thanks.

Q: ESL just reported first quarter results. This line was included:

Operating expenses increased to $23.0 from $14.9 million in the prior year's first quarter and include incremental operating costs related to acquisitions as well as special charges related to restructuring of acquired operations. Non-cash amortization charges in the quarter were $3.6 million and include amortization charges for acquired software and customer relationships from acquired operations.

Buffett refers to these in his recent letter saying some are not real and it makes sense for the investor to adjust for them. Do you agree? Is this what the company is doing when they show adjusted EBITDA?
