Khris,
pls. never forget that COHR is overally diversified. Their portfolio theroy concept is an excellent device for creating shareholder value. Right now the following fields are heavily expanded: Laser appl. in semiconductor manufacturing, telecom (WDM), and newly developed niches in medical applications. I would say that telecom will be one of the greatest rewarding projects for the laser industry.

A friend of mine told me that he believes this could be one of those projects that allow transatlantic fiber-optical cables to be operated without so many costly "repeater"-like devices having to be placed for every subsegment, thus "stretching" the distance of one subnet. This could provide tremendous cost savings as I see it. However this is just guesswork of mine, I could be wrong with this..

regaqrds,
CROSSY
