Enough of the CATS talk! Talk about whipping a dead horse. I think we all agree it was a mistake but I don't believe it will be a total write off. There is probably nothing wrong with CATS that someone in the asics business can't fix. JMAR isn't in the asics business. If they can find a partner who is, they may be able to salvage this. Another question is who owns the real estate? (Betty ? :) ) Richard

If they can reach this as a demo now, and produce as he's stated in 1998 at .13 microns or better, surely there would be a niche market for it. Do you not agree? Perhaps. There are several sources for one-of-a-kind 0.13 (or less) micron devices. SAL claims 0.1 micron capability [ See xraylitho.com ]. However, none wants to pay an arm and a leg for one-of-a-kind except perhaps the CIA or DARPA for a spy sattelite application or something esoteric like that. SAL says it has manufactured 13 XRL steppers. How has this factoid improved your life? Will JM's 0.13 microm or better shake up the IC world? I doubt it. Niche market competing for orders vs. SAL, IBM, et al??? Beats me. Tulvio
