Thanks. I can still remember the conversation with a fellow IC design engineer, Eugene, that helped me understand that etch would be a very high growth area for IC fabrication in an industry that was going to explode... then match it with a company near the bottom of a downturn buying a small company I owned that had the CEO who left AMAT when he didn't get Morgan's job when he retired... and I put a month's pay into it...
LRCX, what a great pick that would have been in 1998!!

I still have one third of my original shares if you count the few shares I've managed to add to my IRAs trading the volatility. It is pretty cool to get a dividend per share today over 2x what I paid for each share!

You know, if you search for my posts about LRCX back in 1998 and 1999, you'll see a few of the major posters at the time really didn't like the stock so stick to your SMCI guns if you find reasons to own like I did with LRCX. Oh, I believe Lam was one of the first major companies to have its exceptional, female CFO speak and get credit during conference calls I listened to. It was really ahead of its time...
