Thanks Jim for your thoughts. That's very helpful. My hope is that semiconductor companies will come out of their slump next year. Have significant stakes in many. Best wishes for a happy holiday season! Tom

Re: Intel/ADI not sure this has legs. It had been speculated before with ADI and INTC were working on a DSP together. M&A activity has picked up in other areas. I do think INTC needs more varied product portfolio. ADI would be a nice fit - IMO. I don't see what ADI shareholders would gain in an Intel Analog Devices merger. Intel has gone no wheres in the last 5 years. If neither company has shown any growth recently where does growth come from after a merger.
