Thanks for the Crow Cakes, Mentor: lobster next?

The folks at Mentor Graphics certainly have a good sense of humor. The company sent me three boxes of cupcakes with a crow featured on the top of each cake.
On behalf of EDN’s SJ bureau thanks for the crowcakes.
So now I’ll make a wild and completely baseless prediction that Calibre sales will continue to decline for the next two quarters— Wally, Greg, and Joe I’m willing to eat lobster (cooked, preferably with a side of melted butter) if I’m wrong… Post a comment
