That's what I'm worried about! The 8000 costs a lot more (better profit margin, I'm sure) and has advertised capability to work very thin product compared to the 1488. If it can't do what they've promised (ref. the show in San Jose), and it looks like there are some problems, this machine may not be ready for prime time. Maybe the slowdown in Asia will give them time to work out the bugs? Who is their primary competitor and how are they doing?
