The IT spending forecasts we provide are up to three months ahead of actuals and up to four months ahead of realized market changes. Q3 2011 will see slight shrinkage in IT spending for the large enterprise space. Preliminary Q4 2011 numbers show the pipeline will deliver somewhere in the mid single digest for Qrt over Qrt growth. Our final forecast numbers and actuals will be available by October Fifth, 2011. The financial vertical is finally stable again however will most likely NOT make up for the delta in Q4. Health care, health care insurance and bio/pharm continues to give us consistent growth.
