John - Re: "What do you guys make of the book to bill ratio numbers? Are things really improving? "

The only Book-to-bill ratio that is published is the Semiconductor EQUIPMENT MAKERS Book to bill - AMAT, LAM, Novellus, K & S, Teradyne, etc.

You need to be careful - equipment sales that were REALLY LOW a few months ago can give rise to a B2B of greater than 1 - even though overall sales are DOWN from a year or so ago - with just a sequential monthly uptick in sales.
