Justa,
This may not have as significant effect as Samsung would hope. They have chips stockpiled that will continue to be shipped. So even though production stops for a while they will still be supplying the
market from their considerable stockpiles. I don't think Micron or other memory manufacturers will slow down production, so it is a non-
event, IMHO.

Here is an exerpt from the article you posted, read between the lines. <snip> more than 25% of Samsung Electronics' world memory chip supply will be reduced. This is expected to have a strong psychological effect on the market. <snip>
I doubt that it will have any effect on the market in the long term.

Just my opinion,
BB
