>>Appleton reiterated Micron's claim to being the lowest cost DRAM producer in industry, so even at $4 each for basic 8x8 64-megabit chips "we are still making a profit.<<

good thing applesauce doesn't have to service all that debt he turned into equity recently ;-)

>>However, many of our competitors are now losing money again on DRAMs.<<

many? not all? you mean takamoto's corner dram fab isn't making money at current prices? i bet all the big boys are, though. iow, misleading language but technically true. hey, applesauce's audience is an easy mark.

>>That's why you see the Taiwanese pulling back to delay new fabs, and the Japanese to continue retrenching in DRAMs."<<

hmmmmm, didn't lehi get pulled back? hmmmmm... ;-)

btw, electronic business ranking of dram mfrs looks like this...

1. samsung $4.75 beeellyon dollars (22.9%)
2. hyundai $4.21 beeellyon dollars (20.3%)
3. micron $3.32 beeellyon dollars (16.0%)

1,500. takamoto's corner dram fab $25 dollars (0.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000001%) - and losing money as we speak (and don't you forget it!).

what happened to the "micron is #1" mantra? seems i reemember calling that wrong years ago. micron isn't #1 by a long shot.

samsung is over 50% larger.
