Thanks....I suppose. However public comments by companies stating specifics are subject to litigation and certainly severe degradation of their reputation if they lie. The rumor mongers have no such responsibility. Look at the earnings and tell me if you believe that CYMER is priced correctly....over or under. What is your informed opinion? You are quite wrong when you assume companies can make specific comments in the misrepresentation of products without liabilites. What credence do you give the sources that claim there is a problem. Tell me who they are. Specifically. That would satisfy me. Just someome with a real name saying..."Nikon is wrong...Cymi..is wrong...Canon...is wrong" and show me why those printed words have some authenticity. Something is happening here....see it? I have read some of your previous CYMI posts and you speak with some authority. Tell me or us what you think? Bruce

RE: "...doubt that there is a conspiracy amongst the stepper companies to protect CYMI's reputation..." There is no conspiracy. Ive spoken at lenght to engineers from Canon and ASML and used excimer steppers from both suppliers, and it's unanimous: 1.) Excimer based steppers are a bitch to install and manufacture. 2.) That's not Cymer's fault. The lasers are working just fine. It's integrating the stepper with the laser that seems to be causing the problems. James Word
