Hi all,

To trade etec, you have to understand its business model. ETEC sells machine that are worth several millions each. Each quarter only 10-15 machines are sold and recognized in their books. If 1 machine does not pass those series of test reqiurement set by the client, it won't be signed off in that quarter. But eventually, it will be posted in the next quarter (blow out earning). Think about it, folks!
