JMD,re:"think of one". No, I can't. Thanks for a more rational
view. I'm long on TI and have 25% of TI's shares for trading.

I learned that DRAM is not TI's main profit(if any) center, rather
a 'training/development' vehicle for manufacturing process. Don't
know if this is necessary the most 'cost-effective' vehicle,
nonetheless is what TI chose to use.

Intel got out of memory way back and have its own 'manufacturing
development process' and it seems to work for them.

AMD seems to suck on 'manufacturing' or not up-to-par.

MU seems to the best memory manufacturing process (didn't some of
those guys come from TI?).

Here my view on taxes. All income, no matter how it was generated (wages, capital gains, interest income ect) should be taxed at the same rate. Why favor some groups and penalize others.
