Dear Neil,
Wading through yours and Scott's posts, I am reminded of those weather radar images the TV stations show. You know, how those clockhand-like lines sweep around the local area and show a lot of activity around the center? But it is really nothing more than ground clutter?
No offense, but all of the patent and industry stuff that you and Scott present have never been anything more than ground clutter. You guys continue to predict "storms" of earnings for PRst based on what you see on your radar screens but nothing in the way of earnings have ever developed. In fact, earnings are declining!!!

And to answer your good news of 1000 presses operating out there ... I guess if they've got 1000 generating 2 cents when they get to 2000, they will earn 4 cents per quarter?

Neil, as expected, the 74 Karat press is going to be a great press and a dominant tool in this size "DI" market. It looks as if Scitex is getting ready to eat Heidelbergs lunch.

P.S. I have it on good authority that the top Rabbi in Isreal has blessed the lunch as kosher. <ggggg>

P.S.S. I don't believe the comment from Dotprint about the numbers of lasers from PRST being cost prohibitive on the SM-74. If that were the case then the Omni-Adast "DI" press using PRST lasers and dry plates would cost as much or more than the anticipated Heidelberg SM-74 (1.4million) and that is probably for a 4 color version.
