Bug, the permabulls keep posting articles about 16mb plant closings and delays. Could this pricing crises actually accelerate crossover?

Toshiba To Triple 64-MB DRAM Output by March 1999

TOKYO (Reuters) - Toshiba said today it plans to triple production of 64-megabit dynamic random-access memory (DRAM)
chips to 10 million chips per month by March 1999 from the three million planned from March 1998.

A Toshiba spokeswoman said the company expects to boost production of 64-megabit DRAMs to eight million chips per
month by December 1998.

Toshiba has yet to decide on capital investment for its semiconductor division in the year to March 1999, she said.

In October, Toshiba said its capital investment in 1997/98 would be 170 billion yen, unchanged from the previous year.

In contrast, its output of 16-megabit DRAMs will be reduced drastically from a scheduled monthly output rate of seven million
chips as of March 1998 due to weakening prices, the spokeswoman said.

Toshiba has not made any decision on how many 16-megabit DRAMs it will produce in the future.

Game, set, match, Tim
