<< I expect clearer, less potentially number manipulative reporting from AMAT.>>

I agree that there is more evasiveness then I normally would expect. Typically they should know what the coming quarter's revenue is going to be and where it is coming from. And yet they spent a lot of time talking about "big orders" "out there" that will determine if DRAM is at 40% or a more normal 20%.

If I didn't know better I might suspect that "poor visibility" is still the order of the day ;-)

FYI - AR's are down and backlog is down. Sounds to me like they may have pulled some orders into this quarter?
