I agree with Tobias. :)

Also...
A lot of people have been asking about the proof that a random state is highly likely to be entangled. If you don't like the Taylor series, then there is a more rigorous proof that uses Lagrange multipliers. Minimize the term in the exponential in the probability (i.e. sum_i log(p_i)) subject to the constraint that sum_i -p_i log(p_i) < log(D) - delta/D. this gives some equation for p_i that has two solutions, so we know the optimal distribution has some p_i = something, and other p_i = something else. Further examination shows that we must have p_1 = something and p_2 = ... = p_D = (1-p) / (D-1). This is for maximizing or minimizing the probability, but to obtain a worst-case bound we want to maximize the probability, which happens when p_1 is larger than 1/D. Then it's just a direct calculation.

Equation A1 of quant-ph/0307221 also does the job.
