I'm still hearing about shortages to come. I feel we need real shortages for everybody to really pile on. I think current orders are just catch up and replacing out dated equipment from the last slow down. I think we need a good three year boom.

I agree completely. If the following is true, this could prove to be the strongest up-cycle ever. An interesting sidebar is that there is currently more wafer capacity in terms of square inches being allocated to flash than DRAM. One reason is that most flash memory is manufactured on older processes, but it bodes very well for the future as flash is in even shorter supply than most chips.
