Don't know if this was posted yet: mercurycenter.com Talk of .05 microns is a bit premature IMO, since the DUV's necessary for deep submicron (<.18 m) aren't here yet. In addition, .05 m is well ahead of the SEMI timetable unless I am mistaken. Would it make sense to push computing this far, this fast? As it now stands, computing ability doubles approx every 18 months. Implementing this would decrease this time dramatically. The question is, do we need such vast computing power so soon? BB, would appreciate any comments since I am not a techie. Regards, Brian
