A quote from the past, Feb. 1997 Can things have changed? "We're experiencing the fastest growth of any semiconductor equipment company—ever," Akins says. Far from bragging, he's feeling the full pressure of the $132 billion semiconductor industry bearing down on him. "If we don't perform, the whole industry gets slowed down," he says. "We're a bottleneck." If Cymer can make enough lasers and keep the lion's share of the market to itself, as it has so far, it should be a half-billion-dollar company in four years. If it can't keep up with demand, and if the industry goes somewhere else for lasers, Cymer will have squandered one of the great opportunities of all time. Either way, the waitresses will have to be fast if they want to serve Bob Akins.
