Hey TD - Happy New Year to you also!

Most worrisome on your list to me is:
"2. Cap utilization is now below 80%, so no price power."

Re: "The group has greatly discounted the Asian problems." I fully agree on this point. I am now firmly in the camp of sick of hearing about SEA problems. BUT, that doesn't make them go away.

Re: "Die shrinks may decrease dram going forward (still beating that drum.)"

I don't understand, because I thought die shrinks created greater efficiencies, meaning more chips. Am I missing something here?

Thanks very much for your reply.

Regards,
Teri (definitely pass the zantac)
