Bookdon, so it is likely that all the engineering, manufacturing, parts, and service will eventually move overseas.... the implication being that not only will those direct US jobs and tax revenues depart but also the impact on all of the small companies that make up the manufacturing support for AMAT products in the way of parts, engineering, materials, shipping, etc. These companies will also lose sales and jobs, as will their suppliers in a massive ripple down effect....a further erosion of our manufacturing base, jobs, and tax revenues... Who will employ these engineers, marketers, salesmen, and blue collar employee's who specialize in this niche industry. There will be no place for many of them to go. BB
