Rob - have a triathalon friend who works for Lam. He is a technician that sets up the install of new equipment. Complains about all the pressure upper mgt exerts at install time.

His comments regarding NVLS often criticize their flawed efforts to do multiple processes simultaneously Something which Lam believes should not be violated (speed vs yield tradeoff ). I am not technical enough to have opinion but will follow up.

I think a combined effort of these two companies really makes a lot of sense.Merger mania has not yet hit the techs and I anticipate it will ( sooner than later). The economies of scale from joint ventures on high dollar-hi tech investments just begs for this market action.

If chrysler and mercedes can gain efficiencies - what about NVLS and LRCX - sounds good to me and thanks for the info

Very kind of you to share

P.S. are you a stockholder of these ?

Bob
