Bill,

I did not know that HWP was using such creative methods of revenue generation as "pay per use" of semi test equipment. However, I have seen a service center in San Jose that is equipped with all the latest test equipment renting for hundreds to thousands of $ per hour where different companies go to test their silicon.

Anyway, the point is, how can AMAT speed the adoption of its front end tools? There have been alot of mention of fabless semi companies leading the charge into the finer geometries. My question is: who are the designless fabs?
