HI Etch,

Although very little of this has been talked about,I believe it is important to know that prices for Dram memory have dropped a higher percentage than most would expect NOT BECAUSE OF COMPETITION ,but Samsung has been caught with its trousers down on price fixing.

They just paid a 300 million dollar fine that Micron ducked because they "Fully cooperated" with the US officials.

All the Sell side guru's where screaming Armegeddon - when really all that happened was a breakdown in a cartel relationship vs a competitive field.

Very few ever put this huge impact into the market and instead talk about inventory gluts blah blah blah.
