I have a question. If current optical light sources are adequate because of innovations in the masks or substrate materials or whatever, is there a danger from out in left field that companies wont order 248 nm laser steppers because innovations are extending the usefullness of thier current equipment. What is the risk that there will not be the demand for these machines if something can be done on the receiving end? Is it altogether obvious that these shrinks are good for cymer? Im asking this question because I really don't understand the collapse of this stock if its machines are so necessary. Any comments or enligtenment would be greatly appreciated.
