TI + VLSI = a good match.

Whever gets VLSI will get not only the communication business of VLSI , which is nor red hot, and will also get the FAB (8") capacity , which will be in a big shortage
in late 1999. If Philips can push this deal through at $17, it is a steal by deducting the $7 cash in the pocket . I think the deal can be pushed through with $25+, and the successful suiter will not be Philips. It is Philips who needs VLSI . To cut the air supply of its major competitors, to help Philips get into the cellular and communication business, to enhance its position with LU, to get the 8" FAB capacity
which will be in a shortage in late 1999. Just the 8" fab alone will cost more than $17
per share. Check with your vendor what is the price nowadays to build a 8" FAB, and Philips has very good idea of it !!!!!!!!!!!! So, if Philips can get the deal at $17, it is a steal, and an embarassment to VLSI share holders.
