That's probably a poor indicator of wealth. Warren Buffett is legendary for being cheap. As is the head of Ikea. There's a book from the 1990s: The Mind of a Millionaire and their research showed that your average millionaire was more likely to own a car wash, laundramat or other fairly dull business that was a cash flow machine and that the wealthy were careful with money paying for value but not for flash.
A lot of people pay for flash but they borrow money to do so.
Speaking of flash, I had a look at some 4 GB flash cards from SanDisk that claim to have double the throughput of regular flash cards. They don't carry them near where I live but I was wondering if anyone has done any testing on these to see how they compare with notebook drives. I was thinking of using one of these as a solid-state build disk. The throughput is supposed to be 20 mb/sec which is double regular flash. I did some tests about a year ago and found flash to be a lot slower in general an unsuitably slow.
Intel is up a tad premarket and AMD is down about 20 cents. Several other stocks I checked were unchanged but I'd guess that things were quiet ahead of the employment report.
