Steve...here is some good DD on JMAR......A must read! DD on JMAR. This is in the midst of taking off and here's why: They operate 2 divisions. 1. JMAR Precision Systems(JPSI) 2. JMAR Semiconductor Inc. (JSI) 1. JPSI provides the fabrication and alignment systems for the production of the"DNA MicroArray Biochips" biz.yahoo.com . "The microarray (DNA chip) technology is having a significant impact on genomics study. Many fields, including drug discovery and toxicological research, will certainly benefit from the use of DNA microarray technology. View an example of the microarray image (38K)." gene-chips.com This will literally cut the researchers cost in half when it comes to comparing DNA samples. Why? Because there are tons of DNA on just one chip, as opposed to an individual sample. Imaging taking the time to study 100 different DNA samples on 100 different slides, when you can view all 100 on "1" slide. Affymetrix (AFFX) finance.yahoo.com have pioneered the DNA chip, however, the DNA Macroarray System is light years beyond that technology. The difference is, the Macroarray can fit several different layers of various DNA strands on "1" chip. This is staggering when you think about it. JMAR helps facilitate this process. Another link you'll find very interesting. Look 2/3 down the page at #62, guess who? JMAR gene-chips.com 2. JMAR Semiconductor Inc. (JSI) just signed a licensing agreement with Phillips Semiconductor (NYSE:PHG) to design and provide high performance semiconductors to the telecommunications market. biz.yahoo.com This will further enhance their bottom line. They have sales in excess of 18mil and look to increase that substantially this year with the deals they have in place. IMO, this is only the beginning for JMAR in terms of new contracts for their services. It's under the radar, but won't be for long. It's hard to find an $8 stock with so much on the horizon. Good luck to all. Here's a link to their web site.jmar.com Take a look at this chart. A chart of beauty ready to breakout. siliconinvestor.com
