We believe the GIS market is strong and will become stronger. An indication of this is that both ESRI and our partners in other geospatial data and technology companies continue to grow. While this is a difficult economic time, we believe that GIS performs well in both up and down economies because it provides huge value for improving decision making, efficiency, and communication within organizations. To realize these benefits, our users continue to invest in this technology as well as the organizations and databases that support them.
