Dear Mr. Mahoney:

      Please note that the Staff is still in the process of
reviewing
your supplemental response letter dated January 31, 2005 and the
associated supplemental materials you provided to us. As a result
of
that review, we have identified some additional materials that we
believe will assist the staff in understanding your responses to
our
prior comments.

      Please understand that the purpose of our review process is
to
assist you in your compliance with the applicable disclosure
requirements and to enhance the overall disclosure in your
filings.
We look forward to working with you in these respects.  We welcome
any questions you may have about our comments or on any other
aspect
of our review.  Feel free to call us at the telephone numbers
listed
at the end of this letter.

1. Analysis of Intercompany Sales/Inventory Transactions,
Including
the Elimination of Intercompany Profit

Please provide the staff with a detailed explanation of both your
old
and new policies for recording intercompany sales/inventory
transactions. The analysis should include representative sample
journal entries for the parent and the sub(s) for the entire cycle
of
the transaction, including elimination in consolidation, and
explanations and examples of how you measure and record the amount
of
intercompany profit in inventory on-hand and in-transit at each
balance sheet date.

2. Analysis of Accounts Receivable Reserves

As previously requested, please provide us with a rollforward of
each
significant component of your inventory reserve (i.e., reserve for
returns, "specific allowances", "general allowances, and bad
debts)
for each period presented, including the interim period. The
schedule
should reflect a separate column for adjustments (reversals) made
in
each period. Please reconcile the schedule to exhibits 12 and 44.2
in
the supplemental materials previously provided to the staff.

Please also provide us with the analysis of your accounts
receivable
reserves underlying the summary included in exhibit 44.2 in the
supplemental materials previously provided to the staff.

3. Please provide us with a summary schedule of all adjustments
and
reclassifications not booked for fiscal 2002, 2003, and 2004,
including unrecorded proposed audit adjustments and
reclassifications. Please include Appendix A, as referred to in
point
10, on page 3, of the representation letter from you to Deloitte &
Touche dated August 20, 2004.

4. Please provide us with a schedule of the error, if any, in the
slow and excess inventory reserve as of June 30, 2002, 2003, and
2004.
