Gary, I'm still researching NEWP, here is the baseline profile of their business. ---Newport Corporation manufactures high-precision components, instruments, and micropositioning and measurement systems for the fiber-optic communications, computer peripherals, semiconductor equipment, and scientific research markets. The company's Components and Subassemblies segment makes vibration isolation systems, mirror mounts, holders, laser-to-fiber couplers, micro-interferometers, fiber optic positioners, lenses, mirrors, prisms, laser beam expanders, collimators, variable beam-splitters, spatial filters, attenuators, and subassemblies using these components. Newport's Instruments and Systems segment makes motion control devices and systems, video-based measurement and inspection systems, process automation workstations, and a variety of instruments----- could you elaborate on automated fiber alignmet process I'm sure demand is exceeding supply and also am highly confident that you know much more about it than any of us. It's great to be able to learn more about the optics area, as it's a strong macro trend. in fact I bought some A finally the other day, I've read what Gilder has to say about their champagne technology to use this bubble process to enhance the flow rate of light through the system. and A really got burned to a crisp by the mo mo crowd.
