Okay, my "very old data" is $9.00/W, and your "new" data is $8.95/W. If in fact my data is "very old", that suggests a TINY $0.05 drop over a long period of time (what I provided, I believe, was 2007 data).

No dopey...the data I showed is from your 2007 web site...the new data should be recalculated at $3/W... did you not read my earlier post?

Perhaps one day it can be a sensible energy source (although never more than a mere supplement to other technologies such as fusion), but not in my lifetime or yours.

Never if we followed your prehistoric prescriptions...

"First Solar has grown to become the largest panel manufacturer, in terms of yearly power produced, using a thin-film cell sandwiched between two layers of glass. This was the first product to beat $1 a watt for production costs.[9] Since then a glut of polycrystalline silicon has pushed prices of conventional panels into the same range."
