RT Re: your response to my " If INTC is sold out, as you say, I would expect the line item under Inventories reading Finished goods to decrease substantially from the 09-26-98 level of 441,000,000 by the next earnings announcement. " you wrote

<With more Intel customers switching to BTO/JIT production systems, somebody will have to be building inventory - and that will be Intel - especially as Compaq ramps their BTO program.>

You seem to say that 441 Million dollar finished goods inventory may be insufficient. That buys a lot of $79(retail) Celerons.

It sounds like you agree with the rest of the commentary. Thank you for your support.
