Re Gruntal update A very quick read of this piece generates the following thoughts: 1) There's a fair amount of fodder in it for SI response on some issues that the thread has been over many times; 2) One glaring factual error: according to Tom Engibous (the CEO, who was in my office earlier today), TI does not collect royalties from Siemens (and it's important to understand that due to their own patent portfolios, the royalties from the Japanese vendors tends to run at lower levels than the latecomers [Samsung, Hyundai/LG, the Taiwanese]); and 3) Am I the only one who finds it a little bizarre that major research pieces on MU tend to TOTALLY disregard MUEI? I mean, it was just a few quarters ago that PC revenues actually exceeded memory revenues. And at one point, the MUEI holdings were seen as a major cash "reserve." While there's no denying that memory has the biggest effect on revenue and earnings growth rates, why is such a major piece of the company treated like it doesn't exist? Could it possibly be because it doesn't fit the investment thesis? Hmmm. - Tad LaFountain
