Jeffrey, re <EA, your posts are very good and they would even be more meaningful if you plugged in the correct numbers. See below from AMAT's earnings announcement. Cash and cash equivalent investments total $1.92B not $1.73B in your post.> I got the $1.763 Billion number right from the balance sheet in the company press release from the most recent quarterly report. Please see the balance sheet at the bottom of..... biz.yahoo.com Oct 25th 1998(in thousands) Cash and cash equivalents $ 575,205 Short-term investments 1,188,351 It still looks like $1.763B to me, Where do you see the $1.92B? In any event, it doesn't change the point I was trying to make. Eric.
