Scot, that is terrific. It is a huge benefit to us small investors. I only hope that some day, in some way, I can return the favor.

Great Job!!!!!!

Scot,

I owe you a debt of gratitude, too. Thanks much!

By the way, inquiring minds want to know.......just how in heck did you do the graphs........draw them in a notebook, then redo them with some presentation graphics? In any case, a great job!

Regards,

Knip

Hi Scot!

Just got home and glanced at your stuff. Nice work!

I will look for missing stuff later, but one thing I quickly noticed was their goal is 21-23% operating margins. To get there, Akins said that they need $90 mil in sales/quarter,the industry needs full recovery and they need to meet their process improvement goals.

Consequently, we can look for this in Q1 2001 (my estimate).

Jay

p.s., BTW, it was nice to meet you.

Scot, I just compared your printed notes with my scrawl. The fact that there is far more in your printed version than in my writing is a testament to your thoroughness. I really don't have anything substantive to add.

One tiny point:

In the Q&A when Akins responded to the question about the good-old boy network and being able to compete against local (to the chipmakers) competitors, I think it's important to note that he used AMAT as an example. He said Japanese chipmakers probably prefer dealing with a Japanese supplier, but AMAT just became bigger than their biggest Japanese competitor. (I can't remember if he said total world-wide sales or sales within Japan.)

Again, excellent job!

Jay
