In my earlier post (http://www4.techstocks.com/~wsapi/investor/reply-7109274), the assumption for current quarter ASP's of 64Mb DRAM was $8.85. If the price currently stands in the "upper end of the 9 dollar range" as noted in your post (http://www4.techstocks.com/~wsapi/investor/reply-7148354), then that's an extra $1 or so per each 64Mb DRAM that is going _straight to their bottom line_!

Excluding the additional order rumored in www4.techstocks.com , Micron was estimated to be selling 50 million 64Mb DRAM's this current quarter--that's an extra $50 million straight to the bottom line. Including the effects of any large order would only make it that much better.

I still believe that this is just the beginning of a "strong DRAM cycle," and what we are seeing now will only get better. $70 in the next day or two?
