Thanks for looking. I'm pretty sure that Applied has a full set of equipment that customers can use to demo all the processes. Is it possible that is what you are thinking of? I'd be pretty surprised it they counted setting that up as sales to themselves. Right now, I can't do any checking. >Ross, I'm going to have to go after hard copy.

Something may have happened when MOT bailed, >but I haven't seen an announcement.
