JSB, what exactly did TXN say would be the same next year, the 2.8 billion capex, or the doubling of capex year-on-year?

This is important, because capex staying the same year-on-year equals flattening of demand. That would be bearish for equipment stocks, since these stocks tend to be priced based on expectations of growth.

Admit the obvious? Where's the profit in that? <grin>

It's obvious to me, I work in this industry and hear a lot of positive stuff most every day. It's been a mystery to me ever since this spring, but I've gotten gun-shy because the money hasn't followed the fundamentals.

But then, I confess I just don't understand money; other than it's complete aversion to my bank account, I mean....
