plan to purchase 4/14; brought on-line 9/14; commenced shipping 12/15 It's a good thing every company doesn't issue three press releases whenever they increase capacity. The newswires would be swamped. Descriptions of the two reactor models from Aixtron: aixtron.com aixtron.com This is an excellent company. Too bad the stock is so high and trades only in Germany. Without them, Kopin would be nowhere. In their Q3 announcement, AIX projects FY99 (December) earnings per share of 0.63 Euros; the price today is ~140 Euros. So, the P/E is just ludicrous, not infinite. The number of shares outstanding is about 15 million. WT

Will No idea at all. I should update my profile! My interest in thermos is mostly to hold coffee I have been mildly interested in TMOs restructuring so I look at it once in a while and noticed the MBE order and bot some TOC for a quick play based on my theory that we are in what I call an amateur market so there is some time to buy after the news [in obscure stocks that have not got a mob following] the result was a quick two point basket! the low pe was also an inducement and in that direction I also found MKA which may turn out even better as it is about ten times earnings and below book but I have not any feel for its technology as I have not followed that sector at all. Perhaps some techie on the thread could evaluate it. Meanwhile the big caps are getting all the play and these teenies are being ignored, perhaps with good reason, but eventually they may come to life, but is it worth holding until then? I plan to watch it and wait for some positive news! Sorry not to be of any help re who the competition is but from what I see around it could be any of quite a number as there is growing interest WWL
