Robert, I don't know when annoucement on earnings will come. Haven't heard nor have I asked. I'm really not in the mode where it is important to me. The fact that it is coming sometime this month is good enough for me and then only out of curiosity since I'm not going to make any buy/sell moves based on it. If I had to guess, I'd say the number will show the stress and strain of low DRAM prices and a somewhat slower market book to bill ratio but good enough to declare a good showing considering. My guess is that a tech upward trend will hit sometime by end of Q1 and take everybody up with it based on expectations of better things to come, particularly in light of the fact that the company has done TREMENDOUSLY well even with DRAM in the tank. How's that for a wild guess? And please do take into consideration that my lack of training and knowledge in investing should negate anybody taking my thoughts seriously. I'm buying regularly now and intend to buy until the stock reaches 70 again and probably stop then. Regards, JB
