Utek vs. Etec Obviously some good points as to new products have been raised. I am trying to get a handle on possible profit potential of these products. Can we get a realistic estimate on the markets for the new products and will the profits in those markets be as quickly squeezed as have UTEKs other markets? Could use some real help there. There are people on this board that know why more than I in the semiconductor area so I will defer to them. The company that I have found to be the best comparison to Utek may be Etec since they seem to be going after the same market with similar products.

Nevada, It seems to me if you are truly interested in getting "some real help", that you could phone or email UTEK IR. They've been quite forthcoming and helpful even to individual investors. Or do you prefer to type long notes advising that imply: You don't know anything; You like to make unfounded speculations, usually pessimistic; You then like to presume that those speculations are god given facts. Pardon me, if I don't read any more of your posts... FWIW, Ian.
