Intel's pre-announcement goes a long way to explaining softness in the DRAM market. PCs consume well over one-half of all DRAMs.

Shorter-term investors should probably stick with names that can show some building momentum in [the first half of 2002].

The pre- announcement season has been fairly mild.

We had our chances in the second half to make it a one-possession game and we didn't do it.

Pre-packaged lunchmeat, some vegetables, a salad -- with the new dietary guidelines, we need 2 and a half cups of greens a day.

We believe that since Intel's pre-announcement in early December that consumer and commercial demand has continued to get worse with commercial showing the most disturbing trends. In addition, we believe that servers, which had actually been on track for part of the quarter, saw some softening that we believe is related to corporate IT budget stretch outs.
