<< Based on your comments about who gets bailed out, I asked if the IMF or consortium of European banks had any say in who got relief and who didn't. She didn't know, but suggested I talk to Kip Bedard at Micron. I guess he's the pro on this particular subject. Anyone know him? It might be worth a call to see what he says. I'm not a MU shareholder, so don't have any connection to the company.>> After reading the linked article -- I think Micron is probably a very good source for this information. techweb.cmp.com From the article -- "Sources said Micron wants to back up its earlier insistence that none of the $57 billion global bailout in Korea end up financing further chip maker DRAM expansions during the persistent massive market oversupply." Micron already has one suit pending against Hyundai & LG Semicon (Korea) for dumping/selling below cost. And they are threatening a new suit on those two plus others, including Samsung of Korea. I can see why Micron would cry foul if the IMF money ends up financing their expansions. If you feel like giving him a call, that would be great. If not, let me know, maybe I or someone else will.

Pat, "Based on your comments about who gets bailed out, I asked if the IMF or consortium of European banks had any say in who got relief and who didn't. She didn't know, but suggested I talk to Kip Bedard at Micron. I guess he's the pro on this particular subject. Anyone know him? It might be worth a call to see what he says. I'm not a MU shareholder, so don't have any connection to the company." Great question and a perfect choice as to whom to ask!!! Try this: kbedard@micron.com Good Luck, Craig
