I2, I'm unclear what the purpose of you highlighting that statement from COHR's report is, but I have some better data for you nevertheless. Lambda shipped about $4.5M of litho lasers in that quarter and booked 0.54($2.4M) of that for the same product per their CC. This brings me to the question of whether you believe the statement that Revenues reflect higher sales volumes in commercial solid-state products and in the lithography business can be attributed to something that accounted for approximately 4% of sales, or is that a PR exaggeration considering sales were only up $1M in that category(or less than one percent of sales) over the previous Q? There is no need for you help Lambda PR. They are in a class of their own. Also, you can expect the first installation of a Lambda laser at a chip manufacturer to get prominent notice in their next earnings release. I hope you do not get carried away with their spin. They should be able to acquire some good data about how lasers are used in the field, at last. Here is some data I compiled about the 4th calendar quarter of last year: Message 7604259 I hope you can draw some rational conclusions from it and don't believe the hype. Bob
