Hi dlo, SVGL's biggest problem in the past has been their limited capacity. I think they will be able to find a customer for these systems in '99 when they would have been delivered. Just my opinion, Bob

Duane, I suspect that they can reallocate the capacity (as one of their big knocks speaks of capacity constraint) towards a willing buyer, but...one in the hand is worth two in the bush. Ironically, as a co. they have very little Asian penetration (<10% I think) and this deal represented some positive traction in that region. Generally speaking, this represents the extent of my knowledge and am unable to comment on other projects/margins etc. Best, Scott
