Katherine,

Thanks for the additional clarification on PGILD.

It sounds exciting; but then so did its 1:1 steppers, the Mix and Match sales strategy and getting twice the throughput at half the cost.

While I haven't given up on UTEK (I'll wait for it to break a $ before I do that. ...and I don't expect it to sell for a small fraction of Cash any time soon.), I won't get too excited until I see firm orders with firm due dates for its new products.

Re INTC: Craig Barrett has dropped the Copy Exact philosophy. He now expects to qualify a second supplier for every tool. I'm not sure whether I saw this on DowJones or Bloomberg, but it sounded as if it was more than just a rumour in passing.

Best wishes,
Ian.
