no, quite logical: Au - periodic chart symbol for gold tech - short for technologies re - short for recycling they probly pay cash for silicon wafers and recycle them extreme coincidence or IDM fan CEO? you make the call! my guess - some old fart who's a james bond fan (either that or it's his last name, CEOs are so frikkn conceited) np: General Magic/Rechenkonig (Mego) BTW i always thought the "Ae" trademark was clever - made it seem as if they were a new element! --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
