Expect to hold for the long term and add over time. Best and again, thanks. Chaz (Cha2 on that other thread <g>) PS Hope you are right re: Qualcomm which I will admit influenced my decision to get started with WIND tomorrow.

Thanks for your good posts. Is this news release competiton? Rich September 4, 2000 05:33 AM EDINBURGH, Sept 4 (Reuters) - U.S. electronics giant Motorola Corp MOT said on Monday it was opening a 20 million pound semiconductor research centre in Scotland's Silicon Glen, which should create 550 jobs over the next five years. The project will be part of the Alba Centre, a high tech research institute in Livingston, 20 miles (32 km) west of Edinburgh. Its work will focus on "embedded software" and will tie up closely with Alba's world-leading research into "system on chip" (SOC) design, which aims to create ever more powerful and diverse microchips to satisfy demand for jazzier but smaller electronic gadgets. Ulitmately, SOC research, which shrinks whole circuit boards onto a single microchip, could lead to mobile phones small enbough to be sewn into the lapel of a jacket, or paper-thin laptop computers. Terry Heng, senior vice president of Motorola Global Software Group, said in a statement: "Our company has been in Scotland for more than 30 years and this investment complements other recent investments by Motorola which will set us up for another 30 years."
