>>It is also probably true that there is "just" an inventory correction in some areas, and more serious problems of demand/saturation in others. <<

That latter explanation makes more sense to me. How can a company like Dell, which I believed really did have as close as you can get to a JIT inventory system, suffer from too much inventory? I think some of these so-called analysts are just recycling what they're used to saying, rather than trying to actually determine what the problem might be. Perhaps I'm being overly harsh, but the fact that I haven't heard one person question this on any of the financial talk shows, really makes me wonder.

Thanks for your thoughts; they're good ones. I believe with regard to the telecoms, they could also be very accurate.
