Key here is that Symbios actually brings something to the ADPT table here. Both the USB and IEEE 1394 are great proprietary intellectual property that, when combined under the ADPT window, will create a kick butt situation for this emerging market (IMHO). This intellectual property is one of the real diamonds coming in from Symbios Logic. These cells are some of the best in the industry and are leading edge.

BTW-Dale, you are absolutely 100% correct with your correlation. It is on CNBC and they will be interviewing Halle of NSM this afternoon. I took a slight plunge in the stock for speculative purposes based on the upcoming interview. Also, I found it real amusing that in the voice promo for this interview CNBC had a semiconductor processing backdrop. I showed an ASYT SMIF pod and autoloader transferring wafers on a piece of equipment. I wonder if ASYT paid for the "free advertisement" and whether anyone but myself knew that it was ASYT products being showcased.<GGG> |
