Shedding some light on the day's comments, Sue
Billat, analyst at BancBoston Robertson Stephens,
told CBS.MarketWatch.com, there exists a
"tug-of-war between conventional wisdom and the
very strong new trends, new drivers for capital
equipment."

"The conventional wisdom says that unless PCs are
red-hot and DRAM [dynamic RAM] prices are
marvelous, there's no hope for capital equipment.
We've got new drivers and new trends now. On
the PC and DRAM side, the DRAM guys are
making money."

Prudential Securities said in a weekly technology
report that DRAM prices continue to fall. The
analysts believe the cost per device is between
$3.50 to $4, with potential to move lower between
$2.50 to $3. Prudential also said the first-tier
DRAM suppliers are profitable. Shares of Micron
Technology, a major player in
the DRAM business, were flat at 38 7/16.
