Lynn A. Tyson, Vice President of Investor Relations and Global Corporate Communication
Thank you. With me today are Chairman Michael Dell; Chief Executive Officer, Kevin Rollins; and Chief Financial Officer, Jim Schneider. Jim will review the fourth-quarter and full-year fiscal year '06 results, as well as our outlook for the quarter, Kevin will follow with his perspective on the market and our strategy, and then we will take your questions.
As the operator said, we have posted our earnings presentation on our Website. I strongly encourage you to read this deck for additional financial and operating information, as well as a reconciliation of our GAAP to non-GAAP results. Upcoming Investor Relations events include our April Analyst Meeting, which will be held in Austin, Texas on April 5th and 6th. Reminders have been sent out via email, and online registration will be sent out next week. The main meeting will be held on April 6th, and on April 5th, similar to last year, we will be hosting executive briefings on strategic areas of our business. These briefings require preregistration; space is extremely limited and will be sold on a first-come-first-serve basis.
