April's growth this year was the strongest April that chip makers have posted in more than a decade.

On a percentage basis only!

In real dollar terms, that statement is not only false, it should be laughed at!!! 6.2% growth from totally washed out numbers. One look at G's book to bill charts will clear that up. I think its totally inappropriate to use the term "strongest" in this environment. Its not a surprise that the quote comes from "Marketing ASS...ociat...es"
