Analyst comment:- from Objective Analysis
- "By acquiring Numonyx, Micron is buying the current leader in the NOR
flash market - which has been a difficult one for nearly all participants.
Leaders Numonyx and Spansion
have suffered losses for several years, with Spansion recently turning a profit
through a strategy largely focused upon markets for low-density parts used by
markets outside of cell handsets, the largest consumer of NOR flash. Micron
itself participated in NOR starting in the late 1990s, but abandoned this effort
in 2006."
