Kevin, The other trend I've noticed is that nobody wants copper. Copper is universally disdained. I was talking to checker at the store yesterday, and she thinks it is absurd to go to copper until 0.13u. Scumbria

Kevin, Re:"The other trend I've noticed is that nobody [on the East coast] wants copper. There's a lot of concern it will turn green over time, so people prefer to stick with nice shiny aluminum." I guess that's the influence of a certain statue off the coast of NYC, excuse me, off the coast of Jersey City. But I've heard that Hillsboro Oregonites also dislike copper in their CPU's. I guess they don't really like "green." Petz
