Re: "Die shrinks may decrease dram going forward."

BB, Can you please shed some light on this issue for us? I was under the impression that die shrinks would actually increase productivity/efficiency, thereby creating more chips with less silicon. (If I'm getting this terminology even close to right.)

Could you please clarify this?

As always, thanks for your input,

Teri

PS. Your crystal ball is workin' like a charm lately. ;-)
