<<HMTT is an improvement over their operation and general net costs.>> I won't ever argue that HMTT's process and model is a more efficient one than KMAG's, but be careful how much you buy into the costs associated with making the media. Financial twiddling can get you a long way. HMTT now has 9 idle lines sitting there costing nothing in Deprec - 2 brand new because they never "turned" them on and 7 "old" ones written off in the restructuring... All are perfectly capable of making good media, but the demand isn't there so they wrote it all off. That puts them from around 60% true capacity to 90%+ on paper... It's finance wheenie world wonderland in CA! todd
