Lawrence,

Yes...I read the GSR also. A human trait is the penchant for hearing what we want to hear and disregarding the rest. However, thats not what I had in mind when I posted the bullish report. It was a notable voice of optimism in a sea of worry and I felt it was worth reading. It also provided a backdrop for the app article on Intel and how they do, indeed, "drive markets".

I am a little dubious of the timing in the report but believe the scenario is a reasonable model of how profitability will return to the techs. Re: your non-treatise du jour I have the following questions:
<<a) the only cheap tech is dead tech>>
Do you mean the products or the stocks?

<<b) tech is expensive and cash flow negative>></>
Same question.

<<virtual integration >>
Do you really mean virtual integration as in the buzzword invented by WDC or do you mean to say vertical integration?

<<Japan's problems can't be "solved". >>
Well..there are differing levels of "creative destruction". Even if Japan has to go back to a totally clean slate there could eventually be a reemergence. (Sans Marshall plan I suspect).

Best,
Stitch
