I don't know... they might continue to get as far away from semiconductors as possible.

$4B share buyback with a market cap now of $14.75B... I wonder what that will do for price?

My trades in this the past 4 yrs have worked out well. Sold some at $30 in early 2004, bought shares at $20 and $25 and just now sold some of the repurchased shares at $29.70 to lock in some gains should it drop. Still have a decent sized position too.

You and I seem to have been the among the few Agilent cheerleaders! Congratulations.

P.S. Been wrong for years now.GG

Your streak is still going Bob. Somewhere in the recent press I saw that Agilent is looking to unload Memory Test and SOC Test in 2006. What makes you think they would want COHU device handlers for the same?

And as I've said for years regarding A buying COHU...NO WAY!
