research and development costs were 2% higher than average, product costs 2% higher than average, both of which are an anomally given the times and which would have given them another $.16 in earnings had both continued close to average. can't dismiss that sales for the nine months ended July 26, 98 are still 25% ahead of the same time frame in 1997; their systems for copper interconnect deposition are ahead of schedule; the system, if successful, which puts them ahead of the competition in nearly all areas. there are some significant positives here going forward.
