Thanks Merlin,

That makes sense on Sandisk's fab decision. I guess this bears watching only for the time being.

in re: SNDK (fab)you said: "It's the large drain on cash flow during the periods when product adoption slows..."

But if non-volatile memory is becoming an essential part of at least 3 markets in hypergrowth (digital cameras, mp3 devices and cellphones), we may not have to worry about the 'drain'. In tornado markets, didn't someone say that the most important issue was getting product out the door (and bashing the competition, no?)hmn?

Mike,

I don't want to invest in a stock in which ownership of a fab is central to the core business

Does this mean you would not consider CREE?

John
