In regard to Japanese market, no specific info, however, was in CompUSA Anchorage Alaska last week, noticed a busload of JAL bag-toting tourists, very Japanese, buying tons of stuff, digital cameras, memory, CPU's, overheard comment that "prices better than Tokyo". Not an uncommon event, Aeroflot crews tend to shop at Costco and Walmart, candy, clothes, and cosmetics.
Regarding Voodoo 2 chipset pricing, I recall Greg forecasting increasing ASP this quarter, not logical, no reasons recalled.
I'll bet that significant sales increases are in the asian markets, primarily Taiwan. Wasn't A-open #2 last quarter ? They're a sub of ACER Taiwan, major home-market OEM.
Markets calm before the storm, happy to be longer than before !
Congrats on being MSG 5000 ! It only happens once you know ! |
