Alfranco, you must have been reading my mind. I spent the most time talking to David Strand and got a chance to shake Mr.Ohta hand. Mr. Ohta said the DVD market meaning (blue laser) have a lot more room to grow its still a growing market(i belive he meant other things like DVD books ect.). GE wants to make production model machine for blue laser Technology rather them old DVD disks I belive that's why their waiting.
I ask Mr. Strand about smaller disks size and calimets different depth pits disks if their would be a problem making them on the new machine the answer was "no". Sony's name came up as a company that was looking at their machine The Blue laser will be a great product but a piece of dust on the disk can cause more problems then with the old DVD disks with red laser. They had a working disk made from the test machine their GE and Ovonic label on it and Mr. Ohta played disk a Ovonic company presentation.

The clean room has been working only one shift but will be put to more increased use. The cognitive computer and (OUM I belive?)will be worked on.

The cognitive computer is made of thin film dwmeldrum ,on Yahoo, said it can be stacked. Other Information from main meeting.) It is being shown to different companies and the "incredible" response is common. ECD is trying to get different companies to work on different products for computer but group together to share costs of work.

Features from hallway board display.
Has neural synaptic function.

Stores and manipulates data in high level bases.

Operates using multi value logic.

Dramatically (inxxxxxx) functioning.

Increases (compution) speech.

Scales to small Angstrom sizes.

Sorry about misspelled or shown unknown words when i write in a hurry i don't write very good this was posted on a board in hallway.

Belive me, ECD is aware of the military and government projects and grants to do research on cognitive computer.

Read dwmeldrums posts on Yahoo for news as i don't want to repeat it.

Will repeat this Time line STM target 2004 for product. Just as dweldrums says BAE should be first. Intel extended work for 2 more years. More companies looking into OUM chips.

Slides on Meeting to be shown Wed. I think that would be wed. of feb. 26th,2003 on Ovonic site.

Notes from Stan's address on Cognitive computer.

Each Element One neuron

Manipulates and stores Information.

Performs high math.

Performs modular arithmetic.

Excutes Multi-value logic.

Store's results in non-volatile memory.

Simple circuity (not positive on word circuity)

If any one can remember these statements please correct my poorly scribbled notes.

Tyler gave long positive talk expect the slides the 26th.
