>>it hasn't happened yet... ...or TI could just sell-off their DRAM interests, take a fat one-time charge and be done with it. Seems to me the stock would respond nicely.

Skeeter, TI came a long way in 1997. Progress was tremendous when you consider the profits against a fairly bad DRAM market. Lot's of other positives came on strong too. A lot of the discussion has been on what's next. Yes there will be competition but that's always been the case. All of what you are saying is true. You can take the half full or half empty approach, whichever, but you cannot deny that if TI management makes mostly the right moves and takes ad- vantage and builds upon what is already in place, isn't there a case for a very bright future? My analysis tells me the company is stronger during this stock price slump than it was when it slumped in 1995, much stronger. Wouldn't this mean that the next surge would be commensurate? I'm not sure but have a feeling. JB
