New Can design, goes from 12 oz to 11.3. Who really give a shit about a can design.

.7 oz per can
16.8 oz per case

Meaning, without upping production, their automatically putting out an extra 100 million cases annually (based on 2007's 125 million bbls), and I highly doubt those fancy new cans are going to be cheaper to the consumer than the current ones out there. Who gives a shit? Their accounting department.

Well...yeah, if they don't change the design, they'll have to talk about the flavor. Seriously.
