Well I'm suckered in now. I even bought some issi. Next I'll be buying idiot (idti) stock. I like semi cycles but this last one has been really hard. If some of you haven't experienced the semi cycle on the upside before be prepared. It is something like the internut craze but there are earnings behind the numbers. Problem is the analysts can't judge correctly what the growth of the company will be. So everyone is left guessing how fast the company will grow. It's a real roller coaster ride. Not just up though. So strap in its fun if this is the real thing. IMHO of course. Joe P.

Hello Fellow ATMEL fans. I follow two stocks, one TI, and the other ATMEL. You likely know the TI story----it's doubled a couple of times in recent history, splits, leadership in DSP, growth, and a darling of Wall Street. My question is, is ATMEL capable becoming a darling stock, break out beyond the low $1B revenue plain, and become a true technological leader and darling of Wall Street. I'm hoping. We could all make some serious money. My problem is that I don't understand the company so well. Why doesn't the CEO go out stumping the cause more, like, let's say Tom Engibous at TI???? I'm just saying, I wish I understood the strategy better. JB
