Gary!!!

Yes, other threaders here seem to support your view...and from what I see in aftermarket so far investors seem to like the new as well.

For me, I remain unconvinced since losing market share in low margin businesses faster than high margin businesses in not what I consider a good thing. Earnings are good due to cost cutting and low component prices (but of course DRAM prices are up now and Taiwan is going to hurt as well).

The days of cost cutting to get earnings up will end quickly. COMS will need to significantly increase revenues (dramatically if one considers COMS without PALM) in order to appease investors going forward.

We shall see what happens... as we all know anything can happen these days.
