Interesting quotes from.... cbs.marketwatch.com SANTA CLARA, Calif. (CBS.MW) -- Investors rewarded National Semiconductor shares Wednesday with a 21 percent gain after the company said it plans to exit the personal computer business to focus on the information appliance market and its analog business. "We will immediately cease slugging it out in the PC processor market, which has been dragging down our financial performance for several quarters," said Brian L. Halla, chief executive officer. "By contrast, the information appliance market is now on the launch pad," he added. Sounds as if they think Info. appliances is the place to be? Jack, maybe you could make an announcement about Information Appliances and see our stock jump 21%? <grin> A good day to all, Marc
