Wayne, I think depreciation rates are faster for most of industry, but slower for scientifically based industries. I think you can determine a real depreciation rate for a firm like MU when they basically dump, switch or remodel all of their fab equipment every year or so, yet have a four year life cycle for writing it down. However, on the other side, they have yet to write off Lehi and it has never been used and probably never will be. <g>
