Mani,

who is talking about upgrading, I doubt that you have heard anyone say they will upgrade 200mm fab to 300mm. No my friend, 300mm fabs have to be built from scratch. That's 30-40+ scanners each, lots of lasers.

Mani, this does not make intuitive sense. The 200mm fabs aren't going to be abandoned, at least not for a while. The 300mm fabs are going to be stocked with new equipment, including CYMI's lasers.
