Thanks for posting that "responce"

either he knows something, which is
doubtful, based on the timing of his
previous coverage changes, or he's
doing the same wishful thinking in
public that we are all doing here,
and admitted he's reserving any
price targets till NMGC announces.

either way, I'd wait to park any
money into this stock since if
they can't get the NMG6 progress
into the August earnings report,
we'll be screwed down to $7 again.

If they do announce good NMG6
progress, then I still would
be reluctant to buy until we
learn of the industry desire
for this product. The 256AV
is doing just fine, so who
knows if the notebook market
really needs much more power
right now. It was gamers that
pushed the FPU envelope on the
desktop; I doubt there is that
kind of graphic performance
pressure in notebook markets.

Kurt Re <<In my upgrade note, I mention that I believe the
production issues are nearly resolved.

I wonder if he knows something or just speculating based on manufacturing cycles. I think that for a Neo's chip at 0.25, the cycle from litho to package is about 8 weeks. Which puts at mid July for the problem being solved. I remember that at the last CC, it was mentioned that designed problems were no longer the reason for the manufacturing problems. Meaning that latest design iterations has made the chip manufacturable at 0.25. I hope that first good chips are being packaged and tested as I type.
