RE: "How about 3rd round layoffs that any rational firm must have in its contingency plan right now just in case things don't look much better in 6 months?"

It appears this IS the 3rd round of layoffs this year:

"The move represents the latest in a series of cutbacks at Applied, which announced the layoff of 2,000 workers in September (see Sept. 20 story). Earlier this year, Applied reduced its headcount by 1,000 positions with a voluntary severance program (see March 15 story)."
