G, that works for the current numbers. What I was asking was regarding the historical P/S data that you'd plotted. How was the price portion calculated? Was it whatever AMAT was at the begining (or end) of its fiscal year or was the average price over the course of the year? The same goes for the sales data. So when I was looking at the 1996 P/S data, was it the weighted (or unweighted) price average divided by the previous year's (or TTM) sales numbers? This question becomes even more important when looking at the quarterly chart and valuations.
