I am confused.
Is there any free capitalist market any more?
First in line, last in line... Is this a GosPlan,
or what?

Yeah, Right, Free Market..... EXACTLY

I am in Charge of ASML. AMD, who potentially buys Steppers for 1 or (maybe) 2 Fabs, wants my limited availability 193nm Stepper. Intel, who potentially buys Steppers for 5+ Fabs also wants my limited availability Stepper. From a "Free Capitalist Market" standpoint, I am going to supply the bigger potential customer first.

Thanks for pointing that out.
