Prices for 64 Mbit chips, a primary product at MU, have fallen from $15. last fall, to a current
$7. No bottom in sight. I expect to see under $4 before summer. Their all-up cost to produce
is well above this latter number.


Earlie,

Thank you for a thorough post and I now have a better understanding.

Glenn

Earlie,

>>MU also plays games with its debt. It has not paid interest on $500.0 million<<

Is the situation here that the interest is charged against earnings without there really being a cash outflow? Like a zero coupon debt of some sort.
