The real significance of this news for me (especially if you have read the interview with CEO on Electronic news about 2 weeks ago) is that a competing technology which could leave DPMI out in the cold - like direct write - is probably pushed back for years. Thus the risk that DPMI could be like an oil well, with its business having a finite life, is much reduced or deferred so far that it probably does not matter in the valuation of the company. However, any financial consequence on earnings of this development could be many years away - except that the interview suggested a scatter-shot approach to R&D, on various technologies, which now might be more focused (and cheaper?).

Heheheh..so those few hundred thousand at the peak weren't yours, eh? Tech Master...You sound like someone we could use on this thread!.. DPMI is tough for me to read, TA wise... and my friends can tell you that some of my pitiful attempts don't quite qualify for a "post-novice" category. On other threads I depend upon folks like the Mystic One --- E!-Graphs to keep me straight, chart wise... and even my Banker loves the E! now!.. And we have Mathon Dabashir, who is understood by the E! (AND understands the E! !!).... For Fundamentals, and really good FA...check out the Wiz...AKA Shane Forbes..none better...and not many better investment records.. And now we are supplemented by The Tech Master... Life could get good here, folks!! But I am concerned about your health, dear T.M.. shorting into a chart that looks like this! <gg>:http://207.95.154.130/chart/default.asp?period=120&time=day&chart=bar&chart1=bb&volume=y&rsi=y&stochastics=y&momentum=y&symbol=DPMI The Saintly One -- TSO
