Question: Brian Swift - Security Research Associates - Analyst: Yes. Thank you. Very good quarter. I would like to see if you can -- a lot of people like me who have been following it for a long time refer to Old Virage versus New Virage. I'd like to see if you can give us a little bit of color on basically Virage before the ARC and NXP deals. How you would characterize that. Obviously if you can quantify it, fine, but if you want to use your adjectives, fine, but to the extent that you can give us a better feeling as to how those base business from a licensing and royalties standpoint are doing
