Yes, I think it's a very profound question. And clearly, I'll try to answer some of your questions. And so first of all, I think the industry consolidation, you mentioned about TI, National, Qualcomm, Atheros, that will be the trend that will continue. And so I think, clearly, winning in the -- I call it the winning platform become critical for the EDA player. That's why we have a laser focus to winning some of this big displacements, the platform we want to win. And so we're going to continue to win that. And in terms of our own industry consolidation, Raj, you know me, I'm a basketball player, I always like to see the game come to me rather than forcing it. We like our strategy. We like our growth map. We stick to our focus in terms of driving our product portfolio, take the leadership in that. And then meanwhile we actively pursue acquisition to add technology that we can really provide the best solution for our customer. Clearly, our EDA360, Silicon Realization, the end-to-end flow and the mixed-signal and the SoC and our IP, and then clearly in our system side, I think will be tremendous. Just related to, I think you mentioned about the Synopsys and Magma merger. First of all, clearly, it didn't change any of our technology momentum. And no change to our market positions. And clearly, we are committed to our roadmap. And then in fact, it created a lot of opportunity for us because our end of life and overlapping digital flow between the 2 company. And then by the way, Magma is only the less than 10% of Synopsys. So clearly, they provide a lot of opportunity for us. While heavily engaging with the customer, they are looking for this solution that we provide, excited about what we have.
