Bill, Re: "What is the lead time for the latest steppers for .18 and .11 etc?. I have heard that it can be 18-24 months?" You have heard correctly ... the leadtime for 248nm scanners (used for .18um) is about 18 months, while the leadtime on the 193nm scanners (used for .13um -> .10um) is about 24+ months. However, the large vendors (Nikon, SVGL ...) will let companies "get in line" for a tool without putting any money down. About 9 - 12 months before delivery, then a purchase order needs to be completed. BTW, you can cancel an order while in line without much of a penalty. Make It So, Yousef
